3D printing in the aerospace industry: a proven capability
The aerospace additive manufacturing market has a long history. Aviation OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers were among the earliest adopters of technologies like 3D printing, harnessing its tooling-free agility for rapid, cost-effective prototyping and product validation.
Today, the scope is wider and its potential is proven. Major aerospace organisations, including Airbus, Boeing and NASA, rely on additive manufacturing as a core component of an agile, risk-managed supply chain, supported by the production consistency and quality assurance required for critical applications.
For aerospace organisations, the question is no longer ‘Can we print this?’, but ‘Where does additive manufacturing create the most operational value?’
AMufacture answers that question. By embedding additive manufacturing into your workflow, we transform the technology from a point solution into an embedded capability, delivering greater agility, resilience and responsiveness at every stage of production.
Why make AMufacture your aerospace additive manufacturing partner?
By embedding additive manufacturing into your workflow, AMufacture transforms manufacturing agility into a competitive advantage.
Our expertise, technologies and ISO 9001-certified quality management systems become an on-demand manufacturing capability for rapid development, production and maintenance. This enables our aerospace partners to manage operational risks while maintaining production consistency at every stage.
Best-in-class Capabilities
At AMufacture, we are constantly improving our technologies to meet and exceed your expectations. Our advanced implicit modelling engine and FEA testing capabilities allow for complex, functional parts optimised for weight and real-world performance.
24/7 Uptime
AMufacture’s best-in-class Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) fleet includes automated build unit changeover systems. These enable the scalable, repeatable production of functional parts 24/7, supported by robust process control and consistent manufacturing quality.
A True Partnership
Additive manufacturing is helping the aerospace industry reduce waste and become less reliant on long-haul supply chains. At AMufacture, each part we produce uses an average of 75% reused polymer from previous builds.
