Design News - Blog - Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Fly Via Additive Manufacturing via @designnews

Direct laser sintering (DLS) is seeing rapid uptake in the construction of unmanned aerial vehicles. DLS is an additive manufacturing (AM) technique that can produce some of the most durable high-quality products around. Aerospace manufacturers -- along with numerous users in the medical sector -- are taking advantage of AM to produce low volumes of complex products requiring high precision. "We're seeing a growing interest in DLS for aerospace," Andy Snow, EOS regional director for North America, told us in an interview. The process can be used to make parts as simple as basic clips that hold harnesses. Some typical applications include components of engines and turbines, as well as parts for cabin interiors. Manufacturing gas turbine engines for use on commercial aircraft -- a use of DLS that's accelerating quickly -- is one high-value application. More manufacturers are...
