SINTX Technologies Inc., an original equipment manufacturer of advanced ceramics, has acquired Technology Assessment and Transfer Inc. (TA&T), increasing SINTX’s capabilities in the aerospace, defense, and biomedical markets.
TA&T is an advanced ceramics business specializing in developing and commercializing materials for defense, biomedical, and industrial applications. The company’s technologies and products include 3D printing of ceramic medical devices and heat exchangers, chemical vapor infiltration and deposition of complex fiber-reinforced ceramic-matrix composites, and hot pressing of transparent armor and other technical ceramics.
Ceramic heater bodies developed, designed, and manufactured by TA&T are part of the sample analysis on Mars (SAM) instrument suite on board the Curiosity Rover. These oven heater bodies were manufactured by TA&T using ceramic stereolithography, a form of 3D printing and additive manufacturing, and can withstand temperatures of more than the 1,500°F required to heat soil samples on Mars in hopes of detecting life.
