CRP Technology, a provider of advanced additive manufacturing services for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), will exhibit at Space-Comm Expo 2025, taking place March 11-12 at London ExCeL.
Visitors to booth A48 can learn how CRP Technology exclusively utilizes Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D printing with its proprietary Windform thermoplastic composites to manufacture high-performance components for the demands of modern space applications.
At Space-Comm Expo 2025, visitors will gain insight into the diverse range of 3D-printed components for small satellites, manufactured using Windform composites and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) technology, including:
- Satellite Deployers & Structural Components – CRP Technology has developed lightweight, high-strength deployers and structural parts for small satellites, including ejection systems, door assemblies, and skeletal frames that provide both mechanical support and system integration.
- Propulsion & Thruster Systems – Windform composites have been used to manufacture high-performance propulsion housings and nozzles, specifically designed to withstand the extreme temperatures and pressures of small satellite propulsion systems.
- Functional & Mission-Critical Aerospace Parts – The company has successfully produced vacuum-proof electronic housings, outgassing-resistant components, and complex mechanical parts, all tailored to meet the strict requirements of small satellite platforms operating in space environments.
Additive Manufacturing for Modern Space Applications
CRP Technology, together with its U.S. partner, CRP USA, has been at the forefront of additive manufacturing for aerospace, contributing to numerous successful small satellite missions over the past decade.
The company is EN9100-certified, ensuring compliance with the highest industry standards. Additionally, its Windform composites have successfully passed stringent space qualification tests, including outgassing assessments, making them ideal for low-Earth orbit (LEO) and deep-space applications.
The combination of professional SLS 3D printing and Windform composites enables CRP Technology to consolidate multiple functional features into a single 3D-printed part, reducing weight, improving structural integrity, and eliminating complex assemblies.
As a new addition to its service offerings, the company’s advanced vapor smoothing technology further enhances surface finish, aerodynamics, and aesthetics, ensuring Windform components meet the highest standards for aerospace-grade performance.
Industry professionals attending Space-Comm Expo 2025 can visit booth A48 to discover how CRP Technology’s expertise in additive manufacturing is transforming the aerospace sector.
Franco Cevolini, CEO and CTO of CRP Technology, commented, “For over five decades, alongside CRP Meccanica’s expertise in subtractive manufacturing, we have been at the forefront of high-performance engineering, pioneering innovative solutions for the most demanding industries.
“With 30 years of experience in additive manufacturing through CRP Technology, we have leveraged our knowledge from motorsport—a sector that shares many challenges with aerospace, including the need for lightweight, high-strength materials and extreme performance reliability—to develop cutting-edge solutions for space applications. At Space-Comm Expo, we look forward to showcasing how Windform composite materials and our additive manufacturing capabilities are enabling the future of aerospace and satellite technology.”
