Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) and Wipro 3D, the metal additive manufacturing (AM) business of Wipro Infrastructure Engineering (WIN), have joined hands to design, develop, manufacture and repair aerospace components using metal 3D printing technology. Prove-outs and certification of components developed using metal 3D printing are other key elements of this pact.
The companies hope the initiative will bring metal 3D printing into the mainstream of Indian aerospace.
“Wipro 3D and HAL have worked together in the past. This further strengthens our collaborative efforts to create additive technology leadership in aerospace,” said Pratik Kumar, CEO, Wipro Infrastructure Engineering.
