Many companies are using additive manufacturing to create tooling faster and with less cost.

A case in point is Advanced Composite Structures (ACS), a company that repairs fixed wing and rotary aircraft. Their manufacturing processes require a lot of tooling.

In this case study you will hear from Bruce Anning of ACS about:

  • Dollars saved per tool by applying FDM additive manufacturing to their tooling
  • Exactly how lead times have reduced compared to traditional methods for making tooling
  • What tooling processes ACS replaced with additive manufacturing
