From 2014 to 2030, the use of 3D printing technology in the aerospace industry is expected to grow significantly. According to a recent report from Additive Manufacturing Research (formerly Smartech Analysis), the number of parts for 3D printed aerospace components is expected to reach 20,636,138 by 2030.

Non-metallic production parts have been a revolutionary pillar of aerospace additive manufacturing, and the number of 3D printed non-metallic production parts is expected to increase from 181168 in 2014 to a staggering 11839620 by 2030, according to the data.

This kind of growth has directly expanded the application of 3D printing technology in the aerospace field, making it the main technology in the production line of the aerospace field.

In addition, the report also shows that the production and application of metal parts in the aerospace field has shown a dramatic growth. It will grow from 17,766 parts in 2014 to 8796518 in 2030.

This significant growth is due to advances and developments in metal 3D printing technology in recent years, with additive manufacturing technology becoming increasingly capable of producing high-strength and durable components that meet strict safety standards in the aerospace sector.

This also marks the shift from traditional subtractive manufacturing to an era dominated by digital design and additive technology.

In recent years, Aurora Innovation has been keeping up with the pace of the market, fully entering the industrial market, and actively developing 3D printing products suitable for market demand.

At present, its metal 3D printing products and SLA light-curing 3D printing products can basically meet the production needs of aerospace parts.

Aurora innovative SLM molding series JG-S180, JG-S300, JG-S255 and other metal 3D printers have a variety of metal material printing capabilities, not only can print aluminum alloy materials, but also can successfully print stainless steel, high-temperature alloys, titanium alloys, high-entropy alloys and other metal materials, through 3D printing technology directly made into traditional process methods difficult to manufacture or even impossible to manufacture complex metal end products, the density of up to 9998. It can effectively improve the utilization rate of metal materials, reduce manufacturing costs, and provide high-precision, high-strength, high-corrosion resistant metal parts.

For non-metallic 3D printing products, Aurora Innovation can also provide diversified solutions. Its SLA molding series JG-A640, JG-A850 and other products can produce non-metallic parts with complex shapes and excellent properties. Lightweight, high-performance and customizable, these components meet the stringent quality and performance requirements of the aerospace industry.

Since its establishment in 2009, after 15 years of development and precipitation, Aurora innovative 3D printing technology has deep professional knowledge and strong technical strength in both metal and non-metal applications, which can fully contribute to the aerospace industry's production needs for high performance, high quality and high efficiency.

With the further development and application of 3D printing technology, in the future, Aurora's innovative 3D printing technology will surely play a greater role in the field of aerospace additive manufacturing.
