Safran to host aircraft cabin additive manufacturing summit

With the widespread adoption of additive manufacturing (AM) expected to support the transformation of the aviation industry, the virtual summit will last three days and focus on unveiling the latest 3D printing technologies, understanding their impact on aircraft interiors and the wider aviation supply chain, as well as the development of new processes and partnerships around certification.

This year’s Aircraft Cabin Additive Manufacturing Summit will feature:

• Additive ambitions: the world’s leading airlines, manufacturers, and industry bodies reveal their plans and projects to increase the adoption of 3D printed parts in the cabin


• Airline perspectives: exclusive insight into the viewpoints of major airlines leading the way in additive manufacturing - including Etihad Airways and Sri Lankan Airlines


• Certification challenges: in-depth panel discussions and working groups focused on tackling the biggest certification challenges for 3D printed parts

Monica Wick, CEO and founder at RedCabin, commented: “Additive manufacturing has already introduced itself as a tool capable of transforming the supply chain, reducing waste, and supporting the development of new lightweight products for aircraft cabin interiors – improving both the passenger experience and sustainability.

“By bringing together leading figures and organisations, we can collaborate and develop new innovations and partnerships which take 3D printing in aviation to new heights – and support the industry’s recovery post-Covid.”

The RedCabin Aircraft Cabin Additive Manufacturing Summit 2021 is sponsored by Materialise and EOS.
