Frontline Aerospace develops patented, prototyped bolt-on gas-turbine retrofit products—the MicroFire™ recuperator and the IsoCool™ compressor technology—that together can increase power and reduce fuel consumption by 10–40% depending on application. The company targets tens of thousands of in-service turbine engines, including the Rolls Royce Model 250 family used in helicopters and drones, and a range of ground-based military, industrial and commercial applications. Frontline says it has moved past prototyping and is focusing on fabrication, production and commercial sales. Leadership emphasizes advanced manufacturing and materials to improve heat transfer and combustion efficiencies. The company highlights emissions reductions, payload and range improvements for aircraft as key benefits. Frontline’s development work dates back to 2008 and it operates from Broomfield, Colorado.
