Nikon AM Synergy secured a U.S.

Originally reported by TCT Magazine

Nikon AM Synergy secured a U.S. Defense Innovation Unit contract to resolve aeronautical bottlenecks via the FORGE program. Using 12-laser NXG 600 systems, Nikon will replace long-lead cast parts with metal 3D printed components. This move targets 12-24 month casting delays, signaling a systemic shift toward industrial-scale AM for defense sustainment. This partnership marks a critical transition from prototyping to qualified production at scale for the warfighter. 🛠️✈️ #AdditiveManufacturing #DefenseTech #NikonAM
