Top 3 Additive Manufacturing OEMs for UAVs

No doubt I have left out many interesting OEMs, but now and today, am I convinced these are the top three, taking into account just its versatility when manufacturing end-use parts for UAVs.

1: Stratasys

2: 3D Systems

3: EOS

Their three shared main advantages are their efficiency, their reliability, and their range of materials. Again: I have left out many interesting OEMs, but the market is moving on, and I think we will see interesting developments in a mid term future.

Additive Manufacturing for the UAV Industry: Analysis and Forecast

In this report, the firm Automotive and Transport Market Research Reports projects that the yearly value of AM manufactured parts in the UAV industry to reach $1.9 billion, driving over $400 million in yearly sales of Additive Fabrication equipment, software, materials and services.

The UAV Additive Manufacturing report also provides information on which companies and institutions in the space infrastructure industry are using Additive Fabrication today, with relevant case studies.
