Electroimpact :: High-Precision Manufacturing Systems for Commercial & Defense Aircraft, Rockets & Spacecraft

Electroimpact is a premier aerospace automation company specializing in high-precision manufacturing systems for commercial and defense aircraft, rockets, and spacecraft. Headquartered in Mukilteo, Washington, the firm was founded to create an engineer-centric environment with minimal bureaucracy, allowing vertical responsibility from concept through customer acceptance. Its projects span complete wing and fuselage assembly automation, riveting systems, and advanced composite manufacturing equipment.

Electroimpact stands out for its extensive robotic and automation offerings. Core robot-based products include integrated robotic drilling, filling, trimming, milling, and laser ablation systems that achieve exceptional accuracy on large aerospace structures. The company’s robotic assembly solutions support collaborative robot deployments for flexible, jig-less factories. A flagship innovation is SCRAM (Scalable Composite Robotic Additive Manufacturing), an industrial true 6-axis continuous-fiber-reinforced 3D printing system that produces aerospace-grade thermoplastic composite parts without tooling.

Additional robotic capabilities feature automated fiber placement (AFP) machines mounted on large gantry or robotic platforms capable of high-speed deposition of carbon fiber for wing skins and fuselage barrels. These systems integrate with drilling, fastening, and metrology tools for end-to-end automated production cells. Electroimpact also supplies specialty robots for orbital drilling, automated tool cleaning, and spacecraft handling equipment.

The company’s technology has been deployed at major programs including the Boeing 787, Airbus A380, and recent partnerships such as Rocket Lab’s large AFP machine for Neutron rocket composites. With facilities in the UK and staff in multiple countries, Electroimpact delivers turnkey robotic solutions that dramatically improve throughput, repeatability, and quality in aerospace manufacturing.
