Space Applications Services relies on the online manufacturer FACTUREE for the procurement of complex components. The specialist for space technology orders drawing parts for the construction of prototypes and so-called Space Qualification Models for space applications. The CNC parts are manufactured with high precision and delivered quickly. FACTUREE is also represented in space with Space Applications Services.
Space Applications Services NV/SA with headquarters in the Brussels region and a subsidiary Aerospace Applications North America in Houston (USA), specializes in system and software development for the European Space Agency (ESA), national space agencies and the space industry. The company develops international solutions and technologies for manned and unmanned spacecraft, earth observation, science, exploration and communication in this segment.
Components needed for prototype construction in robotics at Space Applications Services
The aerospace sector is of great importance for Space Applications Services. To ensure the highest quality and reliability in this highly sensitive area, complex components are required for prototyping and what are known as space qualification models.
Dr.-Ing. Torsten Siedel, Project Manager at Space Applications Services NV/SA, explains, “We had to make changes in how we procure these components, as the previous supplier no longer met our requirements in terms of material quality, delivery times, and pricing. We then thoroughly researched providers and decided to collaborate with FACTUREE – The Online Manufacturer.”
FACTUREE is a brand of cwmk GmbH and maintains a broad manufacturing network of around 2,000 manufacturing partners from the fields of CNC machining, sheet metal processing, 3D printing and surface technology. More than 15,000 machines are constantly available for projects, ensuring on-time deliveries. All manufacturing partners are subject to a continuous data-driven quality management system that is certified to ISO 9001.
Online production of high-quality CNC parts from FACTUREE for space
FACTUREE – The Online Manufacturer supplies high-quality CNC parts to Space Applications Services, enabling the company to use a particularly modern form of procurement. With its online network model, FACTUREE is in a position to provide custom components manufactured by specialized providers with a high level of precision and ensure fast delivery. As the only contract partner involved, FACTUREE is responsible for selecting the most suitable manufacturer and handling the entire process.
The procurement process for components is straightforward – engineers from Space Applications Services create drawings and 3D data that are submitted to FACTUREE. The Online Manufacturer then generates a quote within one to two days. After the order is placed and delivered, all parts undergo a quality inspection at Space Applications Services. Any reworking required is quickly implemented by FACTUREE.
“For more than two years, FACTUREE has supplied us with high-quality CNC parts for various applications and projects. In addition to the high quality, we appreciate the fast delivery times and attractive pricing. The professional, uncomplicated communication also allows us to solve problems quickly, again underscoring the reliability,” says Dr.-Ing. Torsten Siedel, adding “Considering our positive business development that will lead to an increasing demand for CNC parts, we will certainly continue to turn to FACTUREE with corresponding orders in the future.”
