Chennai-based space startup Agnikul Cosmos has developed the world’s largest single-piece 3D-printed rocket engine, made from Inconel, a high-performance superalloy known for its strength and heat resistance. This meter-long engine, printed as a single component without welds, joints, or fasteners, marks a significant advancement in additive manufacturing for aerospace. The innovative design reduces production time and complexity, enhancing efficiency. Agnikul has also secured a U.S. patent for its design and manufacturing process, granting exclusive rights in a competitive market and highlighting the originality of their technology. This milestone strengthens India’s position in global space technology, supported by collaborations with ISRO, IN-SPACe, and industry partners like Wipro 3D, alongside government backing from the Department of Science and Technology and the Technology Development Board.
