Ballistics protection
Delivering lightweight, high-performance components that meet the rigorous demands of aerospace.
- Ballistics protection
Better ballistic protectionwith Additive manufacturing
Challenge
With the pressure of increased threats, today’s modern combat vehicles must be lighter, more mobile and better protected than ever. And while titanium has always been an option, it’s been hampered by high costs, complex manufacturing techniques and availability.
Solution
By bringing together a cost-effective and novel source of high-performance titanium with high-speed additive manufacturing technology, it’s now possible to produce larger, lighter armour at a competitive price point.
Results:
Affordable & lightweight titanium armour
Near-net shape manufacturing
Weldless assembly
Tailored performance with multi-material architectures
More speed, range and space
Reduced weight
