Large aerospace order

In what is one of its largest single orders to date, Stratasys says that Latvia-based additive manufacturing service provider, AM Craft, has purchased four large-scale production-grade Stratasys F900 3D printers to provide certifiable 3D-printed parts for a wide range of aircraft interior applications, including aircraft seating, panelling and ducting.

“In recent years, we’ve seen ongoing demand for 3D-printed production parts among major aircraft OEMs,” says Jānis Jātnieks, co-founder and CEO of AM Craft. “Although COVID-19 has shocked the industry in the past few months, we’re seeing efforts to restart business by remodelling passenger planes for cargo shipments, as well as projects to increase customer safety measures and improve the in-flight experience. In such cases, additive manufacturing is way ahead of slower and more costly traditional methods.”
