Meeting the UAS Industry Where It Is Building
Grand Forks has earned its reputation as the Silicon Valley of Drones, and the UAS Summit & Expo brings together the industry leaders, policymakers, and end-users shaping where UAS technology goes next. AdvancedTek will be on-site to connect with that community and talk through the role additive manufacturing plays in UAS design, prototyping, and production.
What You Will Find at Our Booth
Stop by the AdvancedTek booth to see the range of additive manufacturing technology available to UAS designers and manufacturers today. Our team will be on hand to talk through:
- How our lineup of Stratasys, Formlabs, and EOS technologies supports prototyping, tooling, and production applications
- What FDM, PolyJet, SLA, and metal 3D printing each bring to a UAS design and manufacturing workflow
- Lightweight, high-performance materials suited to drone components and airframes
- How post-processing solutions round out a complete, production-ready workflow
Why UAS Manufacturers Are Investing in Additive Manufacturing
UAS design moves fast, and iteration speed often determines who gets to market first. Additive manufacturing lets design and engineering teams test new geometries, reduce part weight, and move from concept to flight-ready component without the lead times of traditional manufacturing. As programs scale from prototype to production, the right combination of technology and materials becomes just as important as the design itself.
AdvancedTek works with UAS designers, manufacturers, and research organizations across the Midwest to identify the right printer, material, and workflow for their application, backed by our 30-year relationship with Stratasys and additional support from Formlabs and EOS.
