One Piece Solutions

AST has built a portfolio of capabilities for single-piece rocket nozzles and combustion chambers for the global space launch industry.

In comparison to traditional techniques of welding multiple forged components together, AST delivers fine-grain forged material properties using modern CNC-controlled manufacturing processes.

AST precision-forged metal chambers with complex geometries, and nozzles with no welded sections result in stronger, more durable parts and a streamlined assembly process for our customers.

  • Combustion Chambers and Nozzles flow formed from solid disk or ring preforms.
  • Delivers increased tensile strength & durability for aerospace alloys.
  • Increased structural integrity with seamless construction.
  • Fewer manufacturing steps and reduced lead times.
