DefendTex has collaborated with Australia’s Defence Science and Technology Group scientists and researchers to develop 3D printing of rocket boosters for space launch. It’s the fourth Cooperative Research Centres Project (CRC-P) DefendTex has partnered with DSTG on.
The collaboration allows for the printing of rocket boosters in the field, allowing Australian Defence Force to have responsive capability. ‘These partnerships are a critical link between science and technology and Australia’s Defence,” says Julia O’Callaghan, Director University Engagement.
