Orbital Industries

AI-driven materials design for data centers

Overview

Orbital Materials designs AI-powered tools to discover and engineer new materials for advanced industries, starting with data centers. Its platform blends LINUS, a generative AI that designs material structures from target properties, with Orb, a fast quantum-physics simulator, enabling design-before-experiment and virtual testing. Its products include the Orbital Dual Use Chiller for heat ejection and waste-heat capture of water or CO2, plus a high-efficiency direct-to-chip liquid cooling solution, with partnerships with AWS, NVIDIA, and Civo. The company differentiates itself by combining AI-driven materials discovery with physics-based simulation and strong industry collaborations to shorten development timelines and push industrial decarbonization through bespoke materials and cooling, carbon capture, and water-efficiency solutions.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • PFAS-free cooling fluid for next-gen GPUs enables major market entry by 2027 with strategic partners.
  • Modular data center Nova Array deploys in 180 days, reducing infrastructure rollout time by up to 80%.
  • Funding from Plural and NVIDIA Ventures scales commercial deployment in data centers and beyond.

What critics are saying

  • PFAS-free fluid market entry by 2027 faces 40–60% chance of competitor emergence within 12–18 months.
  • EU PFAS regulations in 2026 could cut cooling fluid demand by 30% with 50–70% probability in 6–12 months.
  • NVIDIA may develop its own cooling fluid, reducing Orbital orders by 40% with 35–50% probability in 12–18 months.

What makes Orbital Industries unique

  • Orbital Industries vertically integrates materials discovery, engineering, and manufacturing into one AI-driven system.
  • Its Orb model simulates 100,000 atoms on a single GPU, running 10x faster than alternatives.
  • The company sells AI-designed materials directly instead of licensing intellectual property to partners.
