Titomic (ASX:TTT) reports it recently hosted senior US defence officials at its advanced manufacturing facility in Huntsville, Alabama, to showcase its capabilities for missile defence applications.
The company welcomed Lieutenant General Heath Collins, Director of the US Missile Defense Agency (MDA), and an MDA delegation to evaluate Titomic’s scalable manufacturing, coating, repair, and sustainment capabilities.
Talks focused on building defence industrial capacity, dealing with supply chain bottlenecks, moving away from constrained castings, and shortening repair times.
Major applications considered were missile and propulsion components, pressure vessels, hypersonic structures, protective coatings, and sustainment of deployed assets.
During the tour, delegates observed demonstrations of Titomic Kinetic Fusion cold spray technology for component production and restoration.
Titomic USA President Dr Patti Dare highlights the significance of the engagement.
“We were honoured to host Lieutenant General Collins and the MDA team at our Huntsville facility and to demonstrate the transformational impact of Titomic’s cold spray manufacturing and sustainment capabilities,” Dare says.
CEO Jim Simpson notes that the visit underscores the rising importance of advanced manufacturing in expanding US defence capacity.
“Titomic is positioning itself as a strategic manufacturing and sustainment partner capable of supporting defence production at greater speed, scale, and responsiveness,” Simpson says.
The company is advancing several aerospace and defence initiatives, progressing qualified applications from technical demonstrations to prototype production and repeatable manufacturing programs.
Titomic is an advanced manufacturing company specialising in cold spray additive manufacturing solutions for the global defence, aerospace, and industrial sectors.
