Air Force Utah Uses 3D Printing Technology For Replacement Parts

We have included in our weekly industry news multiple times before how the US Air Force has been using the 3D printing technology to further improve their jets and aircraft and save money and time.

This time, Utah branch is doing the same thing. They will be 3D printing aircraft and fighter jets, such as the F-35. The 388th Maintenance Group of the Hill Air Force Base in Utah, to be exact, was the one who began 3D printing-specific replacement parts for the F-35.

“We’re always driving for speed, safety, and quality. But cost-effectiveness is also a priority,” said 388th MG commander Col. Michael Miles. “This new tech has great cost-avoidance potential and provides rapid repair capabilities.”
