3D printing for aerospace and defense

For projects where weight and reliability are critical: lightweight, rigid parts produced in a traceable way.

Why 3D printing for aerospace and defense?

Aerospace and defense projects demand light weight, strength and repeatable quality at the same time. 3D printing allows complex duct and bracket geometries to be produced as a single part, test and assembly fixtures to be prepared quickly, and development cycles to be shortened. We run every job on record under our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system.

  • Light and rigidCarbon fiber reinforced and high-performance polymers.
  • Part consolidationThe possibility to turn multi-part assemblies into a single part.
  • Quality systemProduction under ISO 9001:2015 certified processes.
  • ConfidentialityProject information stays confidential; we work under NDA.

Good to know

Aerospace and Defense: frequently asked questions

Which materials are used in aerospace?

Carbon fiber reinforced nylons are common for prototypes and fixtures; high-performance polymers such as ULTEM 9085, PEKK and PPS-CF stand out where flame behavior and high temperatures matter.

Do you sign non-disclosure agreements?

Yes. Your project information and files are used only for your project; we sign an NDA on request.

Can you produce certified parts?

For parts that require certification, we review the requirements together at the start and plan the right process, with specialist partners if needed.
