Blue Origin, a leading aerospace transportation company based in the USA, has incorporated an automated line comprising nine multitasking milling and turning centres for machining various rocket engine components, Inconel nozzles of the recoverable launchers, for its Blue Engine facility in Alabama.
The project developed by Soraluce is a customised solution, consisting of a palletised automated line that integrates nine milling-turning machines, with high torque 5 axis multitasking contouring head and milling-turning table.
Some of the main advantages of this solution are the optimisation and increase in production capacity, the reduction of part handling, greater precision in machining and the overall quality of the parts, as well as the reduction of production costs with improvements in the useful life of the tools and a reduction in machining cycle times.

Goimek worked together with SENER Aerospace on the JUICE -JUpiter ICy moons Explorer- mission, led by the European Space Agency (ESA), the aim of which was to explore the planet Jupiter and its three largest moons: Ganymede, Callisto and Europa.
Goimek was entrusted with the manufacturing of the MGAMA Medium Gain Antenna Main Assembly of the JUICE explorer. This two-axis steerable antenna operates in X- and Ka-bands and facilitates both the two-way communication between the spacecraft and Earth and the operation of the radio-frequency experiment carried by the probe.
Specifically, Goimek was in charge of manufacturing the main reflector, a titanium component with a thickness of 0.7mm, 500 mm in diameter and demanding exceptionally high-precision geometric tolerances, as well as the auxiliary elements necessary for the correct operation of the system: the struts and the sub-reflector.
Numerous facets had to be taken into account in the manufacture of these parts: from geometric intricacies, to ensure a correct operation of the mechanism, to the use of lightweight, cost-effective, yet resistant and durable materials to be able to withstand the harsh conditions of Jupiter’s icy moons.
In essence, the endeavour posed a significant challenge for Goimek, nonetheless one that has enabled the company to gain a deeper insight into this type of parts and to consolidate its market position as true specialists in precision machining for the aerospace sector.
