Defense

Lower costs, higher survivability, and faster repair times: we collaborate to strengthen AM in the Defense sector and secure our democracies for tomorrow.

Mightier, safer, more agile – defense ventures into the realm of cutting-edge technology. At MGA, we push the boundaries of Additive Manufacturing to enhance defense capabilities, embracing innovations in materials, precision engineering, and strategic deployment.
Within our Working Group, we explore applications and refine the integration of Additive Manufacturing in defense operations. Join us in exploring ongoing research endeavours, breakthroughs, and impactful initiatives. Together, we are printing a more secure and resilient future for defense, advancing our collective strength and preparedness.
