Lockheed Martin Ventures has made a strategic investment in Knoxville-based Perseus Materials to advance large-format composite 3D printing. By utilizing frontal polymerization, Perseus eliminates the need for massive curing ovens, reducing energy consumption by up to 90 percent. This removes a primary infrastructure bottleneck, enabling rapid, tooling-free manufacturing for naval and energy sectors. This shift underscores a new era of sustainability-as-security for the industrial base. 🚀 #3DPrinting #AdditiveManufacturing #LockheedMartin #CleanTech #DefenseInnovation
