The defense and aerospace industries have used additive manufacturing in a variety of ways. While in its early days it was mainly used for prototypes and tools, we are now seeing more and more end parts in these industries being manufactured using 3D printing. This indicates that additive manufacturing has potential in these sectors that’s far from being fully utilized. The new report from VoxelMatters, which will be published on October 29, will focus on the current state of additive manufacturing in aerospace and defense, what trends we can expect in the future and where the market is heading in the next ten years.
