Why the U.S. Air Force 3D Print Spare Parts with Markforged:<\/span><\/h2><\/div>

The 27 SOSS combat training section is all about readiness, relevance, and resiliency. They are responsible for ensuring their equipment is reliable and available at a moment\u2019s notice. If a part or device breaks, the team must quickly replace or fix it to minimize disruption of ongoing training missions. Given the significant amount of wear and tear on combat equipment, the need for replacement parts is constant.<\/p>\n

In just one example, the U.S. Air Force reduced the cost of a part from $100 to just $5 by replacing costly aluminium with 3D printed composite parts.<\/p>\n
