Sintavia Approved to Additively Manufacture Flightworthy Parts for Honeywell
First Tier One additive manufacturer approved by Honeywell for
production
DAVIE, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#3DPrinting–Sintavia, LLC, a leading Tier One metal additive manufacturer, announced
today that it had received internal approval to manufacture production
parts for Honeywell Aerospace via the powder bed fusion process,
representing the first company to do so. The approval covers all
programs within Honeywell Aerospace.
“We have been working with Honeywell for over 18 months as part of their
rigorous supplier qualification,” said Brian R. Neff, Sintavia’s
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We are grateful that all of our
team’s hard work has paid off, and are looking forward to demonstrating
the many benefits of additive manufacturing within Honeywell’s supply
chain in the form of lower costs, shorter manufacturing times, and
dramatic design improvements.”
What makes additive manufacturing different from more traditional
methods is the addition of material rather than its removal. By using
additive processes, businesses benefit from shorter lead times, mass
customization, greater complexity, less wasted material and greater
energy efficiency. As additive manufacturing as a technology matures, it
is expected that OEMs such as Honeywell will increasingly rely on the
traditional Tier One risk/reward supply chain model to manage
manufacturing costs.
