Marshall CTO on additive manufacturing in aerospace and defence

Patrick Wood, Chief Technical Officer and Engineering Director at Marshall Aerospace and Defence examines new capabilities of 3D printed aerospace parts using ALM.

From our TCT Conference @ Formnext Connect series, Patrick Wood, Chief Technical Officer and Engineering Director at Marshall Aerospace and Defence examines new capabilities of 3D printed aerospace parts using ALM at the UK-headquartered engineering company.

With two main polymer 3D printers in-house, the company uses a Stratasys 450MC in its production and manufacturing activities for products such as composite mould tools and flight capable parts, while a Stratasys F370 is deployed in research & development and prototyping jobs for trial components and manufacturing aids.

On the aerospace leaders adoption of additive manufacturing, Wood said: "[AM is] great for us to take a product from a concept through to a prototype through into production, and we've certainly got plenty of examples in recent years."
