Solideon

Corporate marketmanufacturingCurated record

Builds multi-robot, multi-tool wire-arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) cells that combine metal 3D printing, CNC machining and 3D inspection into autonomous deployable microfactories for large aerospace and defense components. Flagship Aperture system is a collaborative robotic manufacturing cell; company software applies AI-driven generative design and targets removing 90%+ of human intervention in manufacturing. Spun through Techstars Space in 2022 and rebranded from Additive Space Technologies to Solideon.
