CHIRON DYNAMICS, LLC — National Aeronautics and Space Administration SBIR Phase I: COST-EFFECTIVE AM FABRICATION OF HALL THRUSTER MAGNETIC CIRCUITS VIA AFX BEAM-SHAPING LPBF
CHIRON DYNAMICS, LLC — SBIR Phase I award from National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
Phase I SBIR feasibility signal
- Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from National Aeronautics and Space Administration in a technical approach.
- Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
- Obligated amount $224,998. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
- Tagged technology areas: Space & Satellite, Materials & Manufacturing. Follow those hubs for open topics and peer winners in the same cluster.
Summary
Chiron Dynamics is developing a cheaper way to make magnetic parts for Hall thrusters, which are engines used in spacecraft. They will use advanced 3D printing techniques with laser beam shaping to fabricate these components.
