Common 3D Rapid Prototyping requirements in the Defense industry hinge around versatility

Companies in this industry call for their 3D printer to deliver parts of different scopes, sizes and material property simulations. Proto3000 assists this industry well with the various capabilities of its many systems. In particular, Objet’s PolyJet Matrix Technology, used in Objet Connex multi-material 3D printers, is a best seller in this industry segment, as the model materials are watertight and airtight. They also with the ability to create hybrid materials at the same time, allow various applications in the Defense industry that are of prime importance. Impact resistance, shock absorption, gaskets plugs and seals applications, as well as over-molding are, all possible with PolyJet Matrix Technology. By 3D Laser Scanning any item, you will be able to create a virtual CAD copy of the model
 

Benefits of 3D engineering in the Defense Industry:

  • Virtual copies take up much less space than physical copies
  • Virtual copies can be edited at any time
  • 3D scanning and reverse engineering of body panels and existing parts
  • 3D scanning of clay models
  • Surface reconstruction and class A
  • Creation of engineering surfaces (class B)
  • Tooling design
  • System engineering
  • Component engineering
  • Black box projects
  • 3D scanning of model directly in wind tunnel
  • Data preparation for stress analysis and digital simulation
  • Finite element analysis (FEA)
  • Probing/3D digitizing inspection of vehicle parts, assemblies or large objects
  • Tooling inspection
  • Probing or 3D digitizing)
  • Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T)
  • Measure R & D
