Why Do Public-Private Partnerships?

• Better use of resources, cost savings • Industry and government both show a commitment

– Not just doling out grants or contracted R&D where

• Tackle hard problems that can’t be done by one organization – Results are important to all

Need to have good reasons for collaborating…. because it is NOT EASY!


Tenets of Successful Public-Private Partnerships

High Stakes • Huge opportunity for AM • Economic revitalization

• Model for NNMI

Relationships • Open and Trusting

• Transparency • Collaborative Leadership

Reference: Working Across Boundaries: Making Collaboration Work in Government and Non-profit Organizations (R. Linden, 2002)

The Basics/Framework • Shared Purpose • Champions with credibility/clout • Pooled resources • Open, credible processes • Coop Agreement, Statement of Work, Mgmt Structure • Program Op Plan, Perf Metrics, Roadmapping, Project Call Process

Constituency for Collaboration

Government, Industry, Universities, Community Colleges, Econ Dev Orgs


Projected AM Sales (products and services)

“20% of output of 3D printers is now final products, rather than prototypes. By 2020 it may be 50%.” – The Economist (2011)

Why Additive? A Manufacturing Revolution! $B

Government agency investments and interest - throughout NASA, DoD, and DOE


Consumer Product Market

What is Additive Manufacturing?

• ASTM 2792-12: Process of joining materials to make objects from 3D model data, usually layer upon layer, as opposed to subtractive manufacturing methodologies, such as traditional machining. Synonyms include additive fabrication, additive processes, additive techniques, additive layer manufacturing, layer manufacturing and freeform fabrication

• Deposit material where the object “is” rather than where the object “isn’t”

• Trending layperson synonym for all types of additive manufacturing: 3D Printing


Traditional Defense Manufacturing Issues • “Traditional” materials processing methods are slow and cumbersome

– Tooling remains expensive and have long lead times – Last minute design changes are difficult and costly

• Complex structures are difficult to engineer and assemble • Small, intricate geometries and porous geometries are difficult to

manufacture using conventional processes

Many designs are constrained by manufacturing process limitations


DoD Benefits of Additive Manufacturing

Efficient use of Resources Fewer processing steps, net-shape, less assembly, post-processing, less waste material, less energy

Small lot productions Production in lot size of 1, mass customization

Rapid manufacturing Tool-less, extreme cycle time reductions

Agile Manufacturing Spare parts on demand, no stockpiles, simplified

supply chain / logistics Reverse Engineering Scan and manufacture parts for legacy systems

Cost Reduction Expendable / Disposable products

Lightweight Structures Weight removal increases mission capabilities Modularity New Designs to switch components in and out

Complexity Exotic structures, Functionally-graded materials, fabricate moving joints, embedded electronics

Revolutionary Production

Enabling New Technology


DoD/NASA Benefits of Additive Manufacturing

Factory-less Production Remote, mobile fabrication Agility / Flexibility Rapid response to changing missions

Shortening of Supply Chain Potential use of local raw materials

Additive Manufacturing could enable “focused logistics”: Right part, quickly, but only when needed

Local Production


Department of Defense Applications

• High value, complex parts • Low and medium volume part production • Legacy parts and electronics • Remote, mobile fabrication • Custom medical implants and devices

• Sustainability • New products for energy applications

supported by Additive Manufacturing technologies

– Wind turbines: 8,000 high value parts – Vehicle lightweighting

• Manufacturing process energy reductions and efficiencies

Reference: Makers: The New Industrial Revolution (Chris Anderson, 2012)

The Maker Movement: The Democratization of Manufacturing? • Idea of a “factory” is changing • New class of desktop manufacturing equipment is

democratizing manufacturing innovation • Shifting to both “small and global”, “high-tech and

low cost”, “artisanal and innovative” • Bottom-up, broadly distributed, highly entrepreneurial

• Sharing and open source philosophy • 3D Printing is potentially akin to the PC revolution

in 1985?


Replicator 2 (2013)

• Growth of Etsy - Web marketplace for Makers • 2011 – $500 M of sales to

nearly 1M sellers • Over 2,000 3D printed items
