Cost of business, this is the pin that all other factors of Aerospace balance on. The cost of creating, testing, manufacturing, and operating. It is a careful equilibrium that a company runs on. The integration of 3D printing in a company's manufacturing arsenal gives the ability to design and test parts with no cost for tooling. Creation of special geometries and proven materials means aerodynamics can be factored into the foundation of a parts design. Generate previously impossible or costly parts with the flexibility and adaptability of additive manufacturing.
All of these benefits translate simply to a lower cost of business, and that’s always the right decision.
