Additive Manufacturing Mission Assurance Considerations Product Overview

Abstract

Additive Manufacturing is driving an industry evolution at an accelerated rate and has been identified as a new technology with multiple mission assurance gaps in regards to qualified space hardware, including lack of released material, process and inspection specifications. A team was chartered to survey the multiple activities and capture mission assurance considerations that should be understood when faced with incorporating additively manufactured parts. This presentation was given at the 2016 Mission Assurance Improvement Workshop and provides an overview of the full document, Additive Manufacturing Mission Assurance Considerations (Aerospace Report No. TOR-2016-02152).
