Loading for 2025’s ambitions
A new chapter starts for Sonaca Transilvania! To support our ambitions and new contracts, Sonaca Transilvania has just started the construction of a new plant. This 14,000m² building will double the size of the current facilities and will be available from the beginning of 2025. It will house the stretching and bonding of large sheet metal parts capabilities.
Sonaca Belgian and Romanian teams have joined their strengths for the implementation of this ambitious project and for supporting the local teams’ development on new process.
Thanks to national and local institutions for the support.

🌊⚙️ The key to modern maritime propulsion: Did you know that an Austrian invented the marine propeller and brought it to technical maturity?
Josef Ressel, an Austrian inventor, changed the world of marine travel with his revolutionary propeller design. Born in 1793, Ressel's journey began in Chrudim, part of the Habsburg Monarchy. His innovative design was first tested in 1827 in Trieste, the largest port of the Austrian Empire.
Despite an early setback due to a steam engine explosion, Ressel's propeller soon became essential for modern marine engineering.
Patented in 1827, Ressel's invention allowed ships to navigate more efficiently and powerfully. His design reduced drag and increased propulsion efficiency, making ship travel faster and more reliable.
This breakthrough not only transformed naval engineering but also had a significant impact on global trade and transportation.

Attending the D-KULT Yearly Project Review Meeting, this time kindly hosted by the DLR (Deutsche Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt) in Göttingen (https://www.dlr.de/de/as). - The D-KULT (Demonstrator for climate- and environment-friendly air transport) consortium researches and tests processes to reduce the climate impact of air traffic. It looks at how we can keep carbon dioxide and non-carbon-dioxide effects, noise and operational costs as low as possible. One key aim is to avoid persistent contrails and reducing non-carbon-dioxide effects at the same time through targeted planning of flight routes – both in simulation and on the basis of real flights.
The entire project team is full of passion and enthusiasm! - Together as one for the environment!

Zhongtian Technology Submarine Cable's colossal monopile installation vessel, Zhongtian 39, completed its first sea trial. This impressive feature of maritime engineering is a remarkable demonstration of its technological advancement. The vessel's massive size commands a dominant presence in the ocean, reflecting its power and sophistication. It leaves an indelible mark on the seascape, a testament to its awe-inspiring capabilities.
The vessel's sleek and cutting-edge design showcases ZTT's unwavering commitment to innovation as it slices through the waves. Its streamlined hull, glistening in sunlight, is a testament to the seamless fusion of form and function. The vessel's silhouette, adorned with state-of-the-art equipment and advanced technological arrays, casts a shadow over the open sea, symbolizing a new era of monopile installation.
The rhythmic roar of the vessel's powerful engines reverberates across the water, a symphony of engineering excellence. The monopile installation process unfolds with choreographed precision; each movement is a testament to the vessel's immense capabilities. Hydraulic arms extend and retract with graceful authority, plunging massive monopiles into the ocean floor with a force that resonates through the vessel's colossal frame.
Amidst the open sea backdrop, vessels have become a living testament to human ingenuity and determination. This represents ZTT's commitment to connecting the world through cutting-edge maritime technology. As the vessel completes its maiden voyage, it leaves a trail of innovation in its wake—a symbol of progress that transcends the boundaries of the oceanic horizon. The ZTT-roaring monopile installation vessel has set sail into the future, heralding a new era of connectivity beneath the surface of the world's oceans.
Zhongtian 39, the colossal monopile installation vessel of Zhongtian Technology Submarine Cable, triumphs in its inaugural sea trial, showcasing unparalleled maritime engineering. This nautical marvel epitomizes power and sophistication with its cutting-edge design, blending form and function seamlessly. The vessel's rhythmic engine roar orchestrates a symphony of engineering excellence during the precise monopile installation process, symbolizing a new era in marine time technology. ZTT's commitment to innovation is vividly portrayed as this oceanic titan sails into the future, leaving an indelible mark on the seascape of technological prowess.

I am very happy that I can finally share with you one of our key strategic projects (and one of the coolest projects I worked on so far) - developing Isar Aerospace's new #European HQ and with that Europe’s most modern rocket production facility.
In my personal opinion it is critical for Europe to have independent access to certain key #technologies - access to space is one of the most critical but it still lacks public awareness and understanding. Given the times we live in and the undoubted relevance of space-based technology and its usefulness for humanity, it was surprising to receive so little public support for such an endeavor. Space-based technology is not a game for bored billionaires, but the most critical #infrastructure backbone of the 21st century. We hope that our activities as well as this specific project will help to raise awareness.
Isar Aerospace is a company with strong and supportive private investors and with VGP we were able to find a stable and reliable partner that shares our belief in the relevance of this technology. It was a proactive decision to stay in #Germany and to stay in the region around #Munich.
We are a company where people with various backgrounds come together to work on one shared #vision: Opening space for future generations.
In the context of this project, we are looking for a #project manager with experience in such industrial projects. If you know anyone or if you are interested yourself feel free to reach out and apply via our website (link in the comments)
I would like to end with a big thank you to my colleague Rolf Wagner without whom this would not have been possible!

We are excited to share that we have found a new home for Isar Aerospace and will establish our new company headquarters in Vaterstetten near Munich, Germany.
We have signed a contract with the European real estate owner, manager and developer VGP who will develop and build the facility for Isar Aerospace in the industrial area Parsdorf III in Vaterstetten. The new site will accommodate our production, development, and corporate headquarters.
Building a scalable series production and one of the world's most modern production facilities for orbital launch vehicles, we are laying the foundations to become Europe's leading launch service provider enabling #access to #space for small and medium-sized #satellites.

https://lnkd.in/euZ7VzEf The French Renault FT tank on action from 31st Mai 1918 was the blueprint of all modern tanks with a 360° rotating turret used at the very end of WWI. It began as a concept, and became a personal project of Louis Renault, the famous car maker. This was, by far, the largest tank production by any country at that time (around 2600 units), but caused problems to Renault which was still not ready to fulfill such orders and convinced other firms to share the lot, like Berliet at Lyon, and (Schneider) Somua and Delaunay Belleville. It was proposed as a licence to foreign countries as well, and the US industry was first in line, the federal government receiving a single tank and complete plans for 1200 more, both to cover the needs of the French and US Army. The FT 17s after the war were in service with more than 20 countries around the world and took an active part in many military conflicts on different continents. It has become one of the most popular interwar model, and purchased by Finland, Estonia, Lithuania, Yugoslavia, Belgium, while Czechoslovakia, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Greece and Sweden tested it. The biggest buyer outside Europe was Brazil. The FT influence worldwide could not be underestimated: They were the very first US, Soviet and Italians tanks, generating close-copies and printing a profound mark on later developments. The Poles contracted the delivery of 23 FTs for the defense of their newly liberated country. But they never saw action until the very end of the 1920 Soviet-Polish War. Most of those involved in the battle of Warsaw and other events were French FTs which French or Polish crews. Later on, many more were acquired, reaching a maximum of 174 machines that fought in Ukrainian battlefield. The French FT even reached Odessa and occupied during 100 days : https://lnkd.in/esg7sbYk
