China3D printingNet September 24th,Siemens’ Material Solutions company has been certified by the National Aerospace and Defense Contractor Certification Program (NADCAP) for additive manufacturing in the aerospace sector. Phil Hatherley, General Manager of Materials Solutions, said: “We know that to provide the highest quality parts in the aerospace industry, we need to obtain NADCAP certification to prove our leading position in this industry.
We hope to be able to3D printingThe concept has changed from the technology related to prototype manufacturing to mass production, and the viable options for mass production of artificially manufactured parts of subdivision manufacturing. “
NADCAP and the aerospace sector
NADCAP is a collaborative method managed by the industry to assess the compliance of “special processes” set up by technical experts, suppliers, the National Physical Laboratory, and the National Institute of Measurement.It has been generally recognized by the aerospace industry and included in risk reduction certification activities because it verifies compliance with industry standards, best practices, and customer requirements.Italian Metal3D printingService provider Beam IT and non-destructive testing (NDT) service company QC Laboratories, Inc. have both obtained NADCAP approval for use in aerospace production.Siemens uses additive manufacturing to produce various gas turbine components. Material solutions mass production of burner heads for Siemens gas turbines. Such burner heads must withstand extreme conditions during the operation of commercial power plants.

Material solutions and metals3D printing
Materials Solutions in Worcester, UK3D printingThe factory is equipped with about 19 industrial metals3D printingMachine, including EOS M 300-4. This technology is used for additive manufacturing of components and light structural parts for high temperature environments in gas turbines and jet engines and tool applications.
SiemensThe material solutions company was established in 2006. Siemens purchased the solution company in 2016, which will further promote the metal3D printingProduction and supply of parts. Hatherley added: “The team is an expert in using additive manufacturing technology to solve complex engineering challenges for customers.”
