Titomic inks tech deal with BPMI for US Navy

Titomic USA, a subsidiary of Titomic (ASX:TTT), has secured an initial US$250,000 ($359,876) contract with defence prime contractor Bechtel Plant Machinery (BPMI).

Under the agreement, the companies will evaluate and explore advanced repair materials and manufacturing processes for the US Navy’s submarine industrial base using Titomic’s proprietary Titomic Kinetic Fusion (TKF) cold spray technology.

Beyond repair and coating technologies, Titomic is also working to introduce its TKF process into additional defence applications.

CEO Jim Simpson says the opportunity reflects the direction of modern manufacturing.

“The future belongs to organisations willing to challenge traditional manufacturing methods and work together to develop entirely new capabilities,” Simpson says.

Titomic’s goal, the company says, is to partner with industry leaders to unlock technologies that were previously considered impossible and deliver innovative solutions for its defence customers.

The collaboration aligns with Titomic’s strategy to commercialise advanced manufacturing technologies alongside government agencies, prime contractors, and industrial partners.

Titomic is an advanced manufacturing company specialising in integrated solutions for industrial-scale additive manufacturing, coating, and repairs via its patented kinetic fusion cold spray technology.
