Advanced Design Wins NASA Contract

Under a contract with NASA, Advanced Design Consulting USA Inc. will collaborate with the agency’s Langley Research Center to develop a device to facilitate research in electron-beam free-form fabrication in microgravity, a process that will be used to create replacement components for isolated equipment from raw material in wire form. The Lansing, N.Y., company will provide a precision manipulation system with position and velocity control of the electron gun and substrate.
