DoD/NASA Benefits of Additive Manufacturing

Factory-less Production Remote, mobile fabrication

Agility / Flexibility Rapid response to changing missions

Shortening of Supply Chain Potential use of local raw materials

Additive Manufacturing could enable “focused logistics” – Right part, quickly, but only when needed

Local Production

Summary • Huge Opportunity with High Stakes

• “None of us can do it alone. For this to succeed, it needs to scale, and for it to scale, we need a passionate and motivated community” - Avi Reichental, President and CEO, 3D Systems

• “Rather than companies having to bear all of the cost and burden of qualifying these processes and materials, much can be done through collaborative efforts”

- Terry Wohlers, Principle Consultant and President, Wohlers Associates
