Relativity Space is a company with no shortage of ambitious future goals. Between work on Terran 1, a fully reusable Terran R, future missions to Mars, and more, the company is trying to achieve many firsts. One of the most notable is the process of 3D printing entire launch vehicles using a completely unique manufacturing process. With this abnormal approach comes the need for equally unique tooling and machines responsible for the job. Just yesterday the company revealed the next best equipment for this exact task in the form of a next generation 3D printer. Specifically, the company announced the 4th Generation Stargrade metal 3D printer. Some of its features include increased size, strength, speed, and more. Developed in-house, horizontal printing, ramping up the development and rate production of Terran R. Another big step for Relativity Space as they get closer to the first launch of Terran 1, and some critical development of its bigger brother Terran R. Here I will go more in-depth into this new 3D printer, its improvements from past models, what to expect in the near future, and more.
