The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on an initiative to enhance a specific facility’s maintenance and sustainment capabilities by integrating advanced 3-D additive manufacturing into existing machining infrastructure.
Key objectives include:
- Combine additive and subtractive machining capabilities into a single process to enable rapid on-site repair and precision finishing.
- Reduce repair turnaround time and total lifecycle costs by eliminating off-site outsourcing.
- Improve part quality, reliability, and repeatability through advanced hybrid manufacturing processes.
- Establish a technology model that lowers costs and creates new skilled jobs.
- Demonstrate a scalable approach that can transition from defense use to broader commercial manufacturing applications.
