One AM Application area to watch: eVTOLs. The Moore Ranking.

February 14, 2024

We invite our Additive Manufacturing network to read the article Whisper Aero’s Mark Moore wrote for Aviation Week Network. A lot happened in the eVTOLs arena – you may want a shortcut provided by an expert.

First of all, congratulations to Joby Aviation and Archer for their success in the Moore Ranking.

Secondly, a call to action to AM parts manufacturers:

eVTOLs are a very interesting application area, as recently discussed at the Additive Manufacturing Strategies Summit in NYC.

The growing success metal printed parts are experiencing in satellite components makes AM a credible process for eVTOLs.

Aluminum Alloy powders in particular may play a significant role in applications where lightweight, mechanical properties (including fatigue strength) and corrosion resistance are requested.

Spoiler alert: we at VALIMET, Inc. atomize a large variety of alloys in Northern California. (Your proprietary alloys go too).
