PTC Industries Limited announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Aerolloy Technologies Limited (ATL), has received a development and supply order from Blue Origin. This order is for large, high-integrity Superalloy investment castings for the BE-4 engines that power the first stage of Blue Origin's heavy-lift orbital launch vehicle, New Glenn.

The scope of the order includes large Nickel-based Superalloy castings for Liquid Oxygen (LOX) high-pressure and low-pressure housings and manifolds. These components are critical for the seven-engine BE-4 cluster on New Glenn's first stage. The ability to produce such very-large vacuum investment castings in Superalloys for orbital-class engines is a capability held by very few companies globally, highlighting the extreme technical and quality barriers involved.

This significant order follows the completion of an extensive qualification and applicable international regulatory and compliance processes, validating Aerolloy's credibility as a supplier for sensitive space propulsion programs. The production of these castings will be facilitated by Aerolloy's recently commissioned Vacuum Induction Melting (VIM) furnace, one of the largest globally, specifically designed for large Superalloy castings.

Mr. Sachin Agarwal, Chairman & Managing Director of PTC Industries Limited, stated that this selection by Blue Origin marks a defining milestone for PTCIL's entry into space propulsion systems. He emphasized that the order validates Aerolloy's ability to deliver high-integrity Superalloy investment castings, enabled by their VIM furnace, and that they are proud to contribute to a program shaping the future of access to space while strengthening India’s position as a trusted source for critical, space-grade hardware.

The New Glenn vehicle, which successfully reached orbit on its inaugural flight in January 2025, is powered by seven BE-4 engines. The components supplied by Aerolloy are mission-critical, impacting engine performance, safety, and reusability. This engagement provides Blue Origin with access to a rare global manufacturer, supply-chain resilience, and a partner capable of supporting production ramp-up. For PTC Industries, this establishes Aerolloy as a qualified supplier for orbital-class propulsion hardware and reinforces PTC's vertical-integration strategy. It also represents a significant step-change in indigenous capability for high-complexity propulsion hardware for India’s space manufacturing ecosystem, aligning with 'Make in India' and 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' objectives.
