Aerospace and Transportation

In aerospace and transportation, low weight and resistance to heat and flame matter most. 3D printing is used for prototypes, equipment, jigs and lightweight ducts; for demanding conditions – ULTEM™ 9085, ULTEM™ 1010 and PEEK.

Challenges

What we solve

Weight

Every gram counts – optimized, lightweight structures are required.

Heat and flame

Materials must withstand high temperatures.

Certification

Flight parts require certificates and qualified procedures.

Technologies

Recommended technologies

FDM

Fused Deposition Modeling

ULTEM™ and PEEK – top-tier engineering plastics.

MJF

HP Multi Jet Fusion

Lightweight ducts and prototypes.

Materials

Most used materials

ULTEM™ 9085

High strength-to-weight ratio.

ULTEM™ 1010

Highest thermal resistance.

PEEK

Extreme conditions.

Applications

Typical parts

Ducts and nozzles

Lightweight air system parts.

Ground support equipment

Jigs, fixtures, tools.

Important to know

We produce prototypes, ground support equipment, jigs and parts that do not require aviation certification. If a part is intended for an aircraft, discuss the requirements with us before ordering.

Design tips

Before you upload

Flight parts require separate certification processes – we discuss them individually.
Lighten structures with lattices – MJF/SLS produce them without supports.
