Digital Solid State Propulsion LLC

Digital Solid State Propulsion LLC is a Nevada based business to commercialize green, safe, solid energetic materials. DSSP has a modern fully equipped energetics laboratory including TGA, DSC, windowed high-pressure Parr reactor, chemistry lab, environmental chamber, thrust stands/flight test area, and BATFE permitted explosives magazine storage. Chemical reactors of 1 to 50-liters are currently in place in our facilities. DSSP has hot fire test facilities adjoining our laboratory for small motors less than 50lbF and a remote test facility suitable for motors up to 1,000 lbF. DSSP is the sole-source for development of these electrically controlled solid propellants with exclusive licenses on baseline formulations and patents filed on new formulations, ignition hardware and applications.  These controllable solid propellant systems are meeting today’s need for storable rapid response applications. We have developed a low hazard electrically controlled solid propellant (ESP). When electrically controlled solid propellant is fitted with electrodes and power of the required voltage is applied, the propellant ignites and continues to burn until the voltage is removed, causing extinguishment. These electric solid propellants are insensitive to accidental ignition by spark or flame, yet once ignited can be switched-off or throttled electrically.  For Mil. Std. 1901A compliance, electric solid propellants provide a new class of energetic material that has broad application to smart weapon systems including Divert Attitude Control Systems (DACS), rocket assisted projectiles, controllable tactical rocket motors, and spacecraft propulsion. Igniters and squibs are also immediate applications to weapon systems.  These electric solid propellants represent an entirely “new class” of energetic materials that are suited to a broad spectrum of advanced insensitive munitions (IM), propulsion, squibs, and tamperproof electronics applications. ESPs are essentially the first “Smart” solid energetic material. For insensitive munitions (IM) compliance, ESPs cannot be ignited by flame, spark, or tracer rounds. Baseline ESP formulations are non-toxic producing only CO2, N2, and H2O as major combustion products, so are safe for use in close proximity to humans. ESPs are also safer to manufacture as they are easily processed at room temperature, do not require high shear mixing, and once cured are safe to machine. ESPs are also suitable for use in vacuum casting of complex shapes and electrical traces. Applying electronics manufacturing methods to the production of ESP devices, costs can be dramatically lowered, allowing broader use of the technology in munitions.

DRS ICAS, LLC

Dynamic Flowform

Flowforming is an advanced, net shape, cold metal forming process employed for the manufacturing of dimensionally precise, rotationally symmetrical, hollow components. Precise tubular components such as motor bodies and warheads for tactical rockets, having large length to diameter ratios, made with thin walls and requiring a high degree of dimensional accuracy are excellent flowformed parts. Titaniums, nickel-based alloys, high strength carbon steels, high fragmentation steels, Maraging Steels, high strength aluminums, and Tantalum Tungsten alloys are routinely flowformed. Internal and external features for the interface of fuzing, imbedded sensors, explosives, and propulsion are also routinely accommodated.
Well known for its efficiency and economical benefits, flowforming has been widely accepted as the process of choice in the fabrication of difficult-to-manufacture, round and thin wall, military and aerospace components requiring superior metallurgical and dimensional controls.  Flowforming is currently employed for the production of missile war heads, outer shells and nose cones, housings for flight and launch motors, casings for rocket motors, large caliber cartridge casings, thin wall mortar tubes, projectiles, bomb bodies; as well as tubulars for the nuclear, petrochemical and aerospace industries. Flowformed parts are formed to net shape or near net shape, eliminating machining operations and expensive material losses.
A cylindrical work piece is attached to a rotating mandrel; 3 rollers hydraulically compress against the outer diameter of the preform. The desired geometry of the flowformed tube is achieved when the preform wall thickness is compressed above its yield strength and plasticized “made to flow” in the longitudinal direction onto the surface of the inner, rotating mandrel.
As the preform material is thinned out and lengthened onto the mandrel, preforms are formed into seamless, thin wall, very round and concentric tubular-shaped products; with increased mechanical properties from the cold work, refined microstructure, oriented crystallographic texture and excellent surface finishes, all with repeatable accuracy.
