🚁"Additive Manufacturing is well on its way to establishing itself as a foundational technology for manufacturing in the aerospace industry"🛩 In the last 6 months, I have closely been working in the US Federal markets for a repeat client of mine. The main point I have taken away is that the US Federal markets are taking a serious interest in the adoption of AM and it is clear to see why especially within the Aerospace sector. Below are a few important challenges in Aerospace that AM can solve ⬇ 🔸 Part Complexity: Aerospace parts demand intricate designs to fit tight spaces and meet high standards. Additive manufacturing allows for complex designs, including lightweight lattice structures, enhancing performance while reducing weight. 🔸 Design Software: Advanced DfAM software is essential for quickly creating, testing, and simulating complex designs, ensuring manufacturability, and optimizing material usage to prevent waste. 🔸 Cost Efficiency: Additive manufacturing enables part consolidation, simplifying supply chains, accelerating production, and delivering significant cost savings. 🔸 Lightweighting: Through topology optimization and lattice structures, additive manufacturing supports lightweight, but seamless integration into workflows is critical for efficiency. 🔸 Quality Control: Software predicts and compensates for part deformation, monitors printing processes in real-time, and detects defects before they occur, ensuring high print quality. 🔸 Standards Compliance: Digital tracking of production data ensures consistent quality across printers and sites, meeting regulatory standards with detailed reports and full traceability of production processes. I am constantly looking to work with excellent candidates and support Businesses in both 3D/AM who concentrate within the Federal markets whilst my colleague can also support further within the Federal markets away from 3D/AM If you are interested in learning more, mine and my colleague's details are: Email: Taylor.mckenna@mackinnon-bruce.com Number: +44 7774 673 076 Email: Cameron.hearne@mackinnon-bruce.com Number: +44 777 836 3037 #AdditiveManufacturing #3DPrinting #Aerospace #Federal #Recruitment

An interesting article on the advancements in computer-aided engineering (CAE) for additive manufacturing (AM). Where only a few years ago you could only dream of computing residual stresses, anisotropy, and deformation’s drawing on multiscale modeling at the microscopic, mesoscopic and macroscopic levels, due to computational limitations. But where now you can gain a greater understanding of the connections between thermal and mechanical behaviour prior to the AM build, as opposed to post build specimen testing, and there’s definitely a balance to be had between fidelity and computational efficiency when conducting these simulations. https://lnkd.in/gbA7WGfe #research #development #innovation #technology #engineering #design #manufacturing #additivemanufacturing #3dprinting #cae #fea #fem

An Inside Look at 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐳𝐞'𝐬 𝐇𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧 𝐑𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐫 Composite Mould Manufacturing👀 The Forze IX car, a monocoque based on a Le Mans Prototype 2 (LMP2) chassis, has two hydrogen fuel cells, four electric motors and an 8.4 kg capacity hydrogen tank compressed to 700 bars, providing over 800 hp peak power and a top speed of 300 km per hour.🏎️ In the early design phases of a race car, the chassis is one of the most prominent factors in the overall shape and character of the car. It is the core of the car and functions as a mounting place for most of the components in the vehicle. The chassis of the Forze IX consists of roughly three big building blocks.💪 The monocoque is the carbon fibre part of their chassis. It is a safety shell that embodies their driver and a lot of components. The shell is a composite part where the fibres and aluminium honeycomb give it a high stiffness and strength while being light at the same time. Their monocoque is based on a Le Mans Prototype 2 (LMP2) chassis and is designed and manufactured together with their partner ADESS.💫 Using the CEAD Group Flexbot, Forze Hydrogen Racing was able to print a vacuum infusion mould of 2m x 2m, which was was 3D printed with Dalthram® resins from Airtech Advanced Materials Group. Additionally, the robot is equipped with an end of arm toolchange to allow automatic transition from 3D printing to milling. ♻️ When the mould is no longer needed, the material can be broken down into pellets to be reused. This process not only resulted in a lightweight mould but also demonstrates a sustainable production method with fast lead times. Curious to learn more about composites' role in automotive industry?
