Aerospace & Defense 3D Printed Lightweighting Solutions
Drive up fuel efficiency, while cutting operating costs and emissions with lighter parts.
Drive up fuel efficiency, while cutting operating costs and emissions with lighter parts.
Advanced flight platforms are placing pressure on aerospace companies to adopt 3D printing technologies that accelerate the supply chain and encourage innovation at every level, including product development, inspection and MRO (maintenance, repair and overhaul). At the same time, there's a growing need to lower fuel costs and efficiently replace legacy parts for aging fleets.
Aerospace and defense customers leverage 3D Systems' industry-leading metal 3D printing solutions, certification, repeatability and engineering expertise to deliver unprecedented manufacturing productivity improvements:
Increased speed and reliability of quality assurance and validation processes
Lowered fuel costs through lightweighting and parts consolidation
Direct metal printing of airworthy parts.
