Not designed by aliens. Designed by "the first AI that builds machines" as the press has called Noyron, our Large Computational Engineering Model. This hypersonic precooler we produced with @FarsoonAM uses a fractal folding algorithm to chill down superheated air.


LEAP 71 will be at the @DubaiAirshow next week. You’ll find us in the Space Pavilion as part of the @uaespaceagency Space Economic Zones exhibit (Booth 1310). We’ll be discussing Noyron RP — our Large Computational Engineering Model for space-propulsion systems — and our…

Probably the most complex 3D printed part to date. We designed this 1.5m/5ft tall hypersonic precooler and printed it with @FarsoonAM on one of the largest metal 3D printers into the world. We hope to make a meaningful contribution to the discussion on winged ssto spaceflight.

Do aerospike rocket engines create Mach diamonds? Yes they do (only an entirely ideal one with an infinitely-long spike would not create them). But instead of diamonds they are toroidal Mach “rings”. Not many teams have seen them live. We have.

Another great shot of the XRB-2E6 ffsc injector head, manufactured with @NikonSLM - at 600 mm diameter, it’s a massive 3D-printed component. Produced in less than four days, it demonstrates the velocity of iterating on #Noyron-generated designs.

A new 5 kN monolithic KeroLOX engine design we are just finalizing. These flight-configuration engines are incredibly light and extremely easy to manufacture: 3D print, heat treat, machine sealing face (one plane), cut threads. Ready to launch.

Big thank you to @NikonSLM for the fantastic collaboration, bringing this 2000 kN MethaLOX FFSC injector head to life. It’s an important validation step for our largest reference engine, the XRB-2E6.

.@leap_71 has announced the successful production of a 2000 kN (2 Meganewton) full-flow staged combustion rocket engine injector head in collaboration with @NikonSLM - metal-am.com/leap-71-produc… #aerospace #additivemanufacturing #3dprinting #manufacturing #engineering


We validated the manufacturing of the injector head of our massive XRB-2E6 reference engine with @NikonSLM - see previous post for pictures and our website for the press release. Generated by the #Noyron Large Computational Engineering Model without human intervention.


Throwback to June last year. We tested the first “AI generated rocket engine” - a 5 kN KeroLOX thruster that was built using Noyron, our Large Computational Engineering Model. Since then we tested more than a dozen engines, which were all created without human intervention.

Testing our rocket engines never gets old. Here we are starting up a 6 kN KeroLOX regen-cooled thruster generated by "The first AI that builds machines", the Noyron Large Computational Engineering Model, which creates manufacturable engines without human interaction.

A year ago we hot fired one of the worlds most advanced rocket engines - our Aerospike is designed proudly in the Emirates. Happy flag day, UAE.

A 1:7 scale print of the XRB-2E6 reference engine. In the back, the injector head you see at the top in full size. The Noyron XRB-2E6 is our most ambitious reference engine design at 2000 kN (2MN) with a MethaLOX full-flow staged combustion cycle. Generated entirely by Noyron.

Computational models allow us to output different objects for different use cases within minutes. These two liquid-liquid heat exchangers are built from the same Noyron system. Contrary to parametric CAD, the algorithms make smart choices and produce vastly different results.
