Liquidmetal Technologies Inc. has amended its license agreement with Amorphology, Inc., advancing amorphous metal manufacturing for aerospace, defense, and medical industries. This partnership aims to drive high-precision, domestic production and expand market adoption.
Motiv Space Systems’ DEEDS is a space-rated motion control system designed for extreme thermal conditions in lunar and deep-space exploration. Funded by NASA’s SBIR program, it enables long-term operation of rovers, robotics, and ISRU equipment with cryogenic-compatible electronics that reduce power and mass needs. Incorporating Bulk Metallic Glass (BMG) for enhanced durability, DEEDS offers a scalable, high-performance solution for Artemis and future deep-space missions.
Amorphology has partnered with Additec to advance additive manufacturing using bulk metallic glasses (BMGs). This collaboration aims to leverage Additec’s expertise in additive manufacturing and Amorphology’s specialization in BMG technology to develop innovative solutions for producing high-strength, wear-resistant components.
