Defence Equipment and Support’s Future Capability Group (FCG) is aiming to tap the potential of 3D printing to manufacture important parts and equipment for UK Armed Forces. Earlier this summer, FCG established its latest Centre of Expertise (CoE), focusing on High Value Manufacturing (HVM). One of its early priorities is to ...
A project at Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) has created a new technique which could offer on-demand, 3D-printed explosives at the front line. Energetics experts are essential for defence and security; from forensic analysis to the protection of troops from explosive devices. Since recognising this national decline in the energetics ...
A new technique developed through a Dstl collaboration will allow troops to access 3D printed explosives on the front line. The Dstl Future Energetics Project explores new innovations and helped develop 3D printed explosives capabilities. The energetic formulations for 3D printing are manufactured in a LabRAM resonant acoustic mixer, which uses ...
BAE Systems has signed an MoU with Renishaw to improve the capability of additive manufacturing systems for defence and aerospace. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed by BAE and Renishaw aims to create a more cost-effective, faster, and more capable additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, process. The MoU was signed at ...
