Massivit Opens First Europe-Based Service Center to Support RapidWings International Expansion

Massivit (TASE: MSVT) has announced the opening and operation of the company’s first Europe-based Service Center in Barcelona, Spain – functioning under the company’s Europe entity – as part of the recently launched RapidWings manufacturing platform. The new Service Center will produce on-demand tooling in support of the RapidWings end-to-end Aerospace and
Defense composite manufacturing platform.

In light of global Aerospace and Defense market requirements for on-demand manufacturing, the Europe Service Center was established to provide high-speed tooling – including molds, masters, mandrels, jigs, fixtures, and prototype tooling – that reduces traditional tooling lead times from months to days, allowing manufacturers to overcome existing backlogs.

At the heart of the facility lies Massivit’s Cast In Motion (CIM) digital tooling technology that will allow composite manufacturers to bypass recognized tooling bottlenecks and supply chain constraints. Based on Defense projects already completed via the RapidWings platform, manufacturers can expect a tooling lead time reduction of up to 90%.

The Service Center offers manufacturers a seamless workflow from digital CAD design through 3D-printed tool to final machined part. Unlike conventional tooling methods that involve modeling foams, tooling boards, or 3D-printed thermoplastics, CIM technology delivers isotropic tooling that provides exceptional dimensional stability, thermal resistance, adhesion, and surface quality, making the tools suitable for autoclave and a range of temperatures. The molds can withstand hundreds of cycles, thereby responding to the immediate demand for mass-production of drones, airframes, and composite structures.

In addition, the Service Center is intended to serve as the first  step for future deployment of global RapidWings service and production centers which will be operated independently or through a third-party cooperation model (Joint Manufacturing Alliance network).

Yossi Azarzar, CEO of Massivit, stated,  “The establishment and operation of the  service center in Spain is a milestone in Massivit’s business transformation and in the transition to the implementation of our international expansion strategy. Europe, led by the sovereign aviation and security markets, is currently facing unprecedented bottlenecks in supply chains. With our technological manufacturing  platform, we enable customers to shorten tooling production times from months to just a few days, while maintaining full operational control and cost savings.

The Barcelona Service Centre is just the first step in building a global network of service centers and manufacturing facilities in other dominant markets, and we are confident that it will be a strong growth engine to establish us as a key and important link in the international supply chain in the coming years, while creating value for all stakeholders in the company.”
