REQUIREMENT:
Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) currently uses traditional manufacturing equipment and techniques, which tend to limit how complex manufactured prototypes and their parts can be. Therefore, it is DRDC’s intent to augment its current manufacturing capabilities, by introducing the Additive Manufacturing (AM) technique known as Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) - which is sometimes referred to as thermo-plastic 3D printing. By doing so, it will provide DRDC the ability to print designs with moving parts, multi-component prototypes and other parts such as electronic housings - while also reducing labour overhead.
