India mulls cutting-edge 3D printing for possible protracted war
▪️ Additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing joins materials layer by layer from 3D model data.
▪️ 3D printing makes parts and material at the same time, enhancing speed and flexibility, but needs careful process control.
▪️It enables unique parts, material combinations, obsolete parts, rapid prototypes, tools, and job aids.
▪️A motor can be 3D printed in 3-4 days, versus 3-4 weeks via precision manufacturing.
Profits for India from 3d printing:
This technique is useful for missiles, such as very short-range air defense systems (VSHORADS) and man-portable anti-tank guided missiles.
The technology aids in manufacturing specific missile parts, especially rocket motors.
