The ESA’s Manufacturing of Experimental Layer Technology (MELT) project has just formed a consortium of four European companies to create an advanced Additive Layer Manufacturing (ALM) breadboard machine. The new MELT consortium includes Germany-based Active Space, their Portuguese sister company Active Space SA, long-time ESA collaborator OHB Systems and Portuguese desktop 3D printer manufacturer BeeVeryCreative. The primary goal of MELT is to explore, design, build and test a fully functional Additive Layer Manufacturing) ALM breadboard model that will function under the extreme microgravity conditions found on the ISS.
