Additive Manufacturing Media reports that the Navy has established a streamlined technical pathway for deploying metallic 3D-printed components across submarine construction, maintenance, and combat-ready repair, with Project Peculiar Document PPD 802-8436658 removing a longstanding bottleneck.

Additive Manufacturing is a media brand devoted to industrial applications of 3D printing and digital layering technology to make functional parts. We speak to a manufacturing audience. We are exploring the use of additive manufacturing to make tooling, molds and functional prototypes, along with the ultimate aim of manufacturers: end-use production parts. We report on the promise of additive manufacturing in these applications. We also report on the pitfalls. AM editors share the stories of companies finding success with additive manufacturing and the hard roads that led to those successes. Visit our website to subscribe and follow us on LinkedIn for these stories. We want to hear from you, too. (Among other things, we’re always interested in story suggestions.)
