Hosted by
AIRCRAFT CABIN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING
6 – 7 March 2019, Etihad Innovation Center, Abu Dhabi
Event overview
In 2017 Etihad Airways Engineering became first Airline MRO under EASA to design, certify and fly 3D printing parts. Following this approval, Etihad Airways Engineering has pushed to the next step by considering 3D printing as a real competitive advantage designing more efficient and alternative aircraft cabins. Etihad Airways Engineering and its partners have set up a vision to bring the 3D-printed cabin into production – to be on new aircraft programs and in retrofit installations.
Air New Zealand, Air France KLM Engineering and Lufthansa Technik sharing as well such a kind of vision working on interesting 3D Printing projects for cabin interior applications.
This conference will provide a platform to understand updates on 3d printing for cabin interior, discuss challenges on certifications, and most importantly how airlines, OEMs, MROs, and the entire value chain are able to collaborate to achieve one common goal: increasing the use of 3d printing in cabin interior applications.
