Blueshift

We are excited to announce our official partnership with Lilium, developer of the first all-electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) jet! 🚁 🔋 Lilium has selected Blueshift to be the official supplier of thermal protection systems for its initial series production aircraft. We will provide our transformational AeroZero® TPS, which will fit within Lilium’s battery design to help prevent burn through and mitigate the risk of thermal runaway propagation. Tim Burbey, President at Blueshift, said: “We have enjoyed our collaboration and look forward to continued work with the Lilium team in protecting their battery packs and other critical areas within their aircraft. Our partnership will prove the incomparable benefits of our technology in promoting a more sustainable method of transportation.” The Lilium Pioneer Edition Jet is the first planned model of the Lilium Jet and will comfortably seat four passengers on estimated non-stop flights of up to 175 km at 250 km/h at launch. The first manned flight of the Lilium Jet is scheduled for late 2024, with entry into service expected in 2026. Martin Schuebel, Lilium’s Senior Vice President Procurement, added: “Blueshift’s thermal protection system is light, thin and easy to incorporate into our strict design requirements, while producing exceptional thermal results.” Read the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/ewDRxjHN

👉 As aircraft manufacturer, we have entered the industrial phase of producing our Lilium Jets with a focus on quality, delivery, and cost. Yesterday, at our Suppliers Day, we thanked our incredible suppliers for their unwavering commitment to our core values. Their dedication and hard work are pivotal to our success. 🤝 We gathered over 125 suppliers and 220 guests in total. Together, we are transforming the future of regional air mobility. Thank you to everyone for being an essential part of our journey!    #Lilium #Aviation #QualityDeliveryCost $LILM

Blueshift's technology, due to its 85% air content, is used in two main application areas: thermal protection and ultra-low dielectric materials. For thermal applications, Blueshift's AeroZero® thermal protection systems offer an unprecedented weight to performance ratio. The high flexibility and thin profile allow for easy application onto complex parts. Plus, AeroZero thermal protection systems (TPS) can easily be combined with other substrates (like metals, graphite, polyimide films, fabrics) depending on the specific requirements needed. Typical use of the TPS are aircraft skins, battery box assemblies, engine areas, smart weapons, space vehicles, and electronic/medical devices. In ultra-low dielectric applications that require a thin, flexible, high temp and easy to integrate material into designs, Blueshift has developed their PhaseBlue™ product line. PhaseBlue is used to support applications in antennas, radomes, cables, and in some cases even used as an alternative for PFAS materials. With two distinct product lines, you can have confidence that you will find a solution to your most pressing design issues with Blueshift.

Blueshift's President, Tim Burbey, was recently asked to speak at the 2024 Advanced Air Mobility Conference in Montreal, Canada. The presentation provides invaluable insight into the past, present, and future of the AAM industry. If you weren't able to watch the presentation in person, no worries, we've linked the recorded version below. Check it out and let us know your own thoughts on the AAM market! https://bit.ly/3VbEbiD

We're excited to share that Blueshift's CTO, Dr. Garrett Poe, will be speaking at this year's National Space and Missile Materials Symposium (NSMMS) in Madison, WI on June 27th, 2024 from 4:40pm to 5:05pm. Dr. Poe will be speaking about protecting and boosting the operational temperatures of carbon fiber composites in hypersonic defense applications. Don't miss this opportunity to hear from one of the leading voices in thermal protection.

Blueshift is honored and excited to have been chosen as the Company of the Year with under 50 employees at this year's eVTOL Insights Advanced Air Mobility Awards. Congratulations to the entire Blueshift team and thank you for all your hard work and dedication to redefining the future of material solutions 🎉
