U.S. DEFENSE COMPANY COMPASS
SYSTEMS PROCURES TKF™ COLD SPRAY
SYSTEMS TO SUPPORT U.S. NAVY FLEET
READINESS CENTER SOUTHWEST
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – October 14, 2026 – Titomic Limited (ASX: TTT) is pleased to announce that
Compass Systems, Inc. has issued a purchase order valued at more than USD 400,000 (AUD 572,000) to
Titomic for two TKF™623 medium-pressure cold spray systems intended for use at Fleet Readiness Center
Southwest (FRCSW), the U.S. Navy's West Coast aviation maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO)
facility, located at Naval Air Station North Island in San Diego, California.
The procurement supports an ongoing effort led by Compass Systems for the U.S. Navy Commander of
Fleet Readiness Centers to introduce advanced manufacturing technologies at aircraft maintenance and
repair facilities.
Titomic Kinetic Fusion™ (TKF)™ cold spray is an additive kinetic metallization process that accelerates
metallic particles at high velocity onto a substrate to deposit material without melting the feedstock. The
process can be used to restore worn or damaged components to original engineering drawing dimensions,
providing an additional repair capability for components that might otherwise require replacement or more
extensive conventional repair with significant savings in time and material.
"This marks Titomic’s second major aircraft maintenance related order from the U.S. military in just a few
weeks, highlighting the growing adoption of our unique build and repair technology for aircraft
maintenance,” said Jim Simpson, CEO & Managing Director of Titomic. ”This deployment showcases how
Titomic Kinetic Fusion™ (TKF)™ cold spray capabilities can transition from engineering development into
practical, real-world fleet sustainment. We are incredibly proud to partner with Compass Systems and the
U.S. Navy to enhance repair capabilities and improve aircraft readiness."
Compass Systems supports the integration of advanced manufacturing and operational technologies across
aircraft maintenance environments, with an emphasis on transitioning proven technologies into capabilities
that can address sustainment challenges, reduce component replacement requirements and support Fleet
readiness.
“Advanced manufacturing technologies such as cold spray have the potential to provide the Fleet with
additional options for restoring critical aircraft components and improving sustainment capability,” said
David Stricklin, Compass Systems, Inc. “Our objective is to work alongside the Navy’s engineering and
maintenance communities to transition these technologies from development into practical repair
capabilities that support aircraft readiness.”
The award to Titomic provides for two TKF™623 medium-pressure cold spray systems and associated
support. The systems will provide FRCSW personnel with equipment to further evolve cold spray repair
development while establishing production-level capability for approved aircraft component repairs.
This announcement has been authorized for release by Titomic’s Board of Directors.
