CisLunar Industries Makes Metal Materials In Space
Micro Space Foundry (MSF)
(Patent Pending)
Process metal wherever its needed: Small – modular – scalable
Utilize various metal feedstocks: Space debris recycled on-orbit, Lunar regolith, bulk feedstock sourced from Earth, asteroid material
Produce industrial metal materials: Wire, sheet, rod, tube, etc.
Operate on any platform: Host on any station, spacecraft, rover, or Lunar base
