The MOD is working with research partner Plexal, alongside UK Government and the wider CNI industry, to learn how software providers are enabling secure file storage, sharing and handling for safety-critical applications.
Together, Titomic and Amaero will down select refractory and titanium alloy powders based on development programmes and customer demand, with Amaero manufacturing the powders and Titomic manufacturing coatings and parts.
The food and beverage company has a team of three experts using 3D printing systems to produce replacement and spare parts, with a tandardised process for 3D printing technology being developed in the last year.
The consortium includes 3T Additive Manufacturing, BeyondMath, Qdot Technology and the Oxford Thermofluids Institute, and has received 14.1 million GBP of funding from the UK Government.
The annual event, which focuses on additive manufacturing education and training, will open registration to all owners and operators of industrial 3D printing technologies on September 2, 2025.
With an emphasis on transportation-grade homologations and standards, the four new materials consist of two elastomers (RU55 - Shore 55A and RU70 - Shore 70A) and two rigid polymers (ST3-V0 and ST3-HB).
The two-year contract marks the second phase of a project that was first announced in 2023 to support the development of large-scale ‘hypersonic-relevant’ 3D printing capabilities.
The two-year contract will see Kraetonics’ flagship OmniSlice software used to enable the fast design and 3D printing of structures containing the advanced FSS technology, which the company says can be delivered “in a matter of hours.”
