Article:
The rise of additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, has had an impact on every industry, and the defense space is no exception. Nearly a decade ago IDGA shared the first iteration of our top 10 uses of additive manufacturing in defense. Those uses included tasks like printing food or treating injured soldiers.

In 2024 some things on that list have stayed true while others are no longer relevant uses of additive manufacturing in defense. Before Advanced Manufacturing for Defense kicks off this June 11-12 at the Westin Hotel in Pasadena, California, IDGA wanted to refine our list of the top 10 uses of additive manufacturing in defense.
