Market Definition

A 3D-printed drone is a type of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that uses 3D printing in the production of components or structures. This technology, commonly known as additive manufacturing, involves the manufacture of three-dimensional objects from digital models layer by layer. It depends on such materials as polymers, composites and metals for the production of drones. In case there are cases that involve difficultly designed lightweight designs, 3D printing provides an excellent solution for flexibility and performance purposes. This reduces material waste, production time hence improving the development cycle and lowering costs borne by manufacturers. There is still a preference for traditional drone manufacturing techniques like CNC machining and injection molding because of their reliability, scalability and ability to meet rigorous quality requirements. However, these processes generally take more time than 3D printing.
