Black Engine Aerospace
Black Engine Aerospace GmbH is a German SME specializing in the production and development of high-efficiency ceramic rocket engines and components for launchers and orbital propulsion. Founded as a DLR spin-off in 2018, the company leverages over 20 years of development in innovative ceramic high-performance rocket thrust chamber technology, initially based on transpiration cooled high enthalpy Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMC) space structures. Their portfolio includes chemical propulsion systems with thrust chambers exceeding 1000 kN, electric propulsion technologies, hybrid/composite structures for space launchers, long-life journal bearings for rocket turbopumps, new combined cycle aerospace flight engines, and flow sensors based on porous CMC materials. They also operate a mobile PYROSTAR test facility for flow testing. The company holds exclusive licenses for patented technologies developed by DLR, positioning it as a key player in the New Space industrial technology transfer sector in Europe.
