America Makes and NCDMM awarded 1.1 million USD to Lockheed Martin and Eaton to synchronize U.S. and U.K. metal additive manufacturing for defense. The project establishes a shared qualification framework for Laser Powder Bed Fusion, enabling interoperability for critical components. This moves the industry toward a federated digital model where parts meet identical standards regardless of production location. Such alignment is vital for scaling point-of-need manufacturing and securing global defense logistics. 🚀 #AdditiveManufacturing #DefenseTech #3DPrinting #SupplyChain
