UltiMaker 3D printers can be found onboard joint logistics support ships, in the back of military support vehicles, even in flight cases deployable to staging areas at a moment’s notice.
Such a powerful, affordable, and self-contained manufacturing platform unlocks incredible flexibility to supply parts exactly when and where they are needed, allowing you to take the lead in innovation and operational readiness – while other defense organizations wait for parts delivery.
For spare and replacement parts that must withstand extreme conditions, glass and carbon fiber reinforced polymers provide the necessary strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance. With these filaments from the world’s leading material manufacturers, plastic parts can often replace metal, which creates lightweighting opportunities.
And if metal must replace metal, the UltiMaker’s Metal Expansion Kit reduces the cost of producing low volumes of 17-4 PH stainless steel parts – at up to 90% cheaper than traditional and other additive manufacturing technologies.
UltiMaker’s turnkey solution allows you to train engineers and operators to 3D print (often within 30 minutes). This adds a powerful end-to-end technology to their toolkit.
It also enables secure distributed manufacturing to mitigate supply chain challenges. UltiMaker’s 3D printing platform is protected with robust data protocols and procedures, giving you the choice between online, offline, or intranet workflows.
Not only does the Dutch Air Force use 3D printing to create custom tools to efficiently maintain their fleet of helicopters, fighter jets, and cargo planes. They also teach new engineers the easy-to-use 3D printing workflow and how to spot new applications opportunities. Get all the details in the success story.
