This $990,999.00 firm fixed-price contract was awarded by NASA to Quadrus Corporation, a minority-owned small business, for the continued development of an additive manufacturing (AM) approach to fabricate bimetallic combustion chambers for future NASA small launch vehicles. The contract, which is a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II action, leverages Quadrus' expertise in selective laser melting (SLM) and magnetic pulse welding (MPW) to reduce manufacturing lead time and cost, while improving quality through ease of inspection. The two-piece combustion chamber design uses a GRCOP-84 liner inserted and MPW-welded into an Inconel 625 structural jacket with integral propellant manifolds. This scalable approach aims to significantly reduce costs and lead times compared to traditional manufacturing methods for complex rocket engine components.
