Additive Flight Solutions provides additive manufactured aerospace part solutions to airline customers around the globe. The company utilizes Stratasys’ deep knowhow and expertise in additive manufacturing, coupled with the comprehensive maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) at SIAEC, AFS accelerates the adoption of 3D printed parts for commercial aviation, military aviation as well as other industrial applications.
The AS9100D certification is a standardized quality management and assurance system governing the aviation, space and defense industry sectors. This certification helps manufacturing suppliers such as AFS provide products and services that meet customer needs while complying with all applicable regulatory and statutory requirements.
As the standard, MRO approved additive manufacturing center for SIA Engineering Company (SIAEC), AFS supplies industry grade parts and services used in interior airplane cabins to local and global manufacturers. The 3D printed parts are mainly used as replacements parts in the interior cabin environment. A recent example being sanitizer holders provided to a local airline which were developed and produced with the help of the company. Manufacturers will be able to partner with AFS owing to the confidence that stringent requirements across industry applications are being met.
