How Lockheed Martin Used FDM to Produce Certified NASA Flight Parts

Lockheed Martin adopted FDM 3D printing to manufacture certified flight parts for NASA missions, eliminating costly tooling and accelerating production timelines.

This case study highlights how high-performance materials like Antero ESD and ULTEM 9085 enabled faster delivery, reliable thermal performance, and reduced downstream risk in critical aerospace applications.

The result: production-grade parts delivered on schedule, with improved repeatability and compliance for space-bound systems.
