York Space Systems is planning to build a new, larger manufacturing facility in its headquarter city of Denver, Colorado, in order to boost manufacturing capability to keep up with customer demand.
In a May 18 announcement, York claims the new Manufacturing Technology Center will boost its production capacity by four times. Now, York can manufacture up to 20 spacecraft simultaneously, but the new facility will allow the company to deliver spacecraft as fast as 30 days after a contract award.
The company did not specify when the new facility will be ready. The new three-story facility will be the company’s third building, after it achieved full capacity in its first production facility, announced in May 2020.
