On 9th July, Arianespace took a major step forward in the history of European space with the successful launch of the very first Ariane 6 rocket from the Kourou space base. This success marks the return of its position as European leader in terms of access to space.
NTN Europe is proud to contribute to this major project. Like its predecessors, the new Ariane 6 rocket incorporates a hydrogen turbopump and a cryogenic valve, both equipped with SNR bearings, carefully designed and manufactured at our Annecy site in France.
We would like to congratulate all the Arianespace teams for their hard work and commitment in achieving this promising success. This launch opens up new opportunities for the European space industry and reinforces NTN's position as a key player in the global aerospace bearing market.
NTN Europe is investing €30 million and plans to hire 100 new employees to strengthen its aerospace business.
