The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is soliciting inquiries from companies interested in obtaining exclusive or nonexclusive license rights to commercialize, manufacture, and market a new additive manufacturing technology titled Cladding and Freeform Deposition for Coolant Channel Closeout. This technology, specifically the Laser Wire Direct Closeout (LWDC) capability, provides a robust method for building nozzle liner outer jackets to close out channels and contain high-pressure coolant in liquid rocket engines. The process supports bimetallic parts, such as copper and super-alloy combinations, and allows for real-time inspection during fabrication. NASA has completed hot-fire testing of the parts, which remained reliable under extreme combustion temperatures and pressures for over 1,000 seconds with minimal channel deformation.
This special notice, identified by solicitation number T2P-MSFC-00054, falls under NAICS 627110 for Space Research and Technology and PSC 9999 for Miscellaneous Items. No funding is provided in conjunction with these potential licenses, and the responses are intended to promote public awareness and conduct market research for future licensing opportunities rather than a follow-on procurement. Interested parties must submit a license application through NASA’s Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS).
The deadline for expressing interest in this licensing opportunity is March 2, 2027. Administrative oversight is provided by the NASA Technology Transfer Program, and there are currently zero attachments associated with this notice. This opportunity focuses on reducing the time and cost required to fabricate intricate nozzle channels for regeneratively cooled nozzles, supporting more reliable and affordable access to space.
