This Report shows how tools like artificial intelligence, digital twins, and on-demand manufacturing are no longer emerging concepts, but are already delivering measurable impact across the product lifecycle.
Aerojet Rocketdyne engineers optimized a key component of their Reaction Control System (RCS) quad thruster using additive manufacturing. Not only is the new space engine part 67% lighter, but it also contributes to the reduction of the overall production cost of the thruster by 66%
Brims, rafts, and skirts are FDM 3D printing techniques that can enable better bed adhesion and print stability. Here’s how and when to use them.
Nozzle diameter and layer height can both greatly affect the resolution, printing time, and appearance of 3D printed parts. They are also connected to each other in an important way.

Brims, rafts, and skirts are FDM 3D printing techniques that can enable better bed adhesion and print stability. Here’s how and when to use them.
Nozzle diameter and layer height can both greatly affect the resolution, printing time, and appearance of 3D printed parts. They are also connected to each other in an important way.
Along with prototyping, additive manufacturing has also found its way into end-use fully functional component production. In many sectors, 3D printing is employed along with conventional technologies like CNC, if not singly.
