SCOA AEROSPACE & DEFENSE PROGRAMS - C O N T I N U E D
UP IN THE AIR
S
COA's Aerospace and Defense Programs Units are also looking at investments in technology that look
to disrupt the airline industry, such as additive manufacturing (AM). Research and development of AM -
sometimes called 3D printing - has been underway since the 1980s. As this technology has made it
possible to manufacture metallic materials into complex configurations unattainable with conventional manufacturing methods, the solutions this provides to mass production problems are proving to be revolutionary. Numerous industries now embrace the advantages of AM, which include development time for components, decreasing inventory and slashing logistics/storage costs, to name a few. Enter SCOA's latest investment: Sintavia.
As an independent metal additive manufacturer for the
aerospace & defense industry, Sintavia has the expertise
and game-changing technology to create and alter components individually. With high-speed printers co-located
alongside precision post processing equipment, a full complement of mechanical testing equipment, and a full metallurgical and powder laboratory, Sintavia is able to optimize
parameters, serially manufacture and audit quality parts.
On May 9th, Sintavia opened the doors to its new 55,000
square-foot advanced manufacturing facility, located in
Hollywood, Florida. The facility houses over $25 million
worth of advanced manufacturing equipment and has
the capability of producing tens of thousands of parts,
representing more than $100 million of potential AM
revenue annually.
