AddWorksTM , a consultancy team of GE Additive will supply its AM services to General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc, a manufacturer of Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) systems, radars, electro-optic and related mission systems. 

Over 200 engineers and manufacturing specialists work for GE Additive AddWorks. They all aim businesses to make the right decision when it comes to industrialization, part certification processes, materials characterization and production readiness strategies.  The team has been selected at the end of a competitive tender to accelerate the qualification of metal additive within GA-ASI processes.

This is a great fit for us, because GE has already been through a similar journey. We get where GA-ASI is at and where it wants to go.  By offering our learnings and in-depth knowledge of the aerospace and defense industry, we will be able to assist them in leveraging metal additive with our methodical, systematic approach, that meets the exacting requirements of the sector and their aggressive goal to grow the impact of additive within their application space,” said Jason Oliver, President & CEO, GE Additive.

The services of AddWorksTM remind that GE Additive has more than one string to its bow when it comes to accelerate the industrialization of am and to foster its adoption at a younger level.

Some of our AddWorks consultants are responsible for designing and then industrializing many of the additively manufactured aerospace parts that are in service today. So, they are very well-placed to accompany GA-ASI in accelerating their additive journey. We’re honored to secure this engagement and look forward to helping them drive successful outcomes and their competitive advantage,” he added.
