Organised by the Aerospace Technology Institute (ATI) and the MTC, this event will focus on the pace of AM adoption within the civil and defence aerospace supply chain. The challenges and opportunities identified will inform the ATI’s AM roadmap to be published in 2024. This activity is being conducted in partnership with The MTC - The National Centre for Additive Manufacturing (NCAM) in the UK.
As AM becomes increasingly capable of producing at volume, the technology has opened up opportunities to deliver safety critical parts at a competitive rate for the UK aerospace sector. It was highlighted as key to delivering Net Zero 2050 in the UK technology strategy Destination Zero, published by the ATI in April 2022. Alongside other advanced manufacturing capabilities, AM can support the competitiveness of the UK industry in sustainable design, manufacture, assembly, and operations of future aircraft.
Wider engagement to inform the updated AM strategy for aerospace includes the establishment of Aerospace focused AM Communities of Practice (DED, MPBF, Supply Chain, Digital), key stakeholder in-depth interviews and AM aerospace supply chain workshops.
