Dassault Systèmes announced that Lockheed Martin is deploying the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to support its digital engineering initiatives. Through this multi-year collaboration between the two companies, Lockheed Martin aims to build a digital thread that extends from design through manufacturing for its next-generation airplanes and helicopters. Lockheed Martin is using a variety of industry solution experiences based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform as part of a larger suite of digital engineering tools. The company’s Aeronautics and Rotary and Mission Systems business areas are utilizing the platform for 3D design software, 3D Digital Mock Up and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions in a…

…the type of controls required for drone racing, which Lockheed Martin has made investments in recently. “Why is this problem important? It is beautiful because you are competing with a human pilot,” Kayacan says. “The drone has to see the correct gates, estimate where they are and then decide the trajectory, and you need a really good controller. Can we compete with a human pilot? Over the next five to ten years, it will happen.” The lab uses a mix of off-the-shelf drones and drones that the team designs from scratch and creates using an filament fusion fabrication 3D printer.…

…the National Center for Advanced Material Performance (NCAMP), and Lockheed Martin Missile and Fire Control, with NIAR research funding from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). “The significance of this project for the aerospace industry is tremendous,” says Tracy L. Albers, Ph.D., president and CTO, rp+m. “Our open collaboration with the FAA-funded effort to develop a framework for advanced polymer-based additively manufactured materials, in this case, ULTEM 9085, into the NCAMP process was incredibly successful. The project examined an extensive and comprehensive set of machine process controls to understand and measure variability. It yielded the creation of the first, public database…

Lockheed Martin Space has qualified a 3D printing process to build titanium fuel tanks for satellites. Sciaky (a Phillips Service Industries subsidiary) announced that its Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing (EBAM) process had achieved qualification for making the tanks after testing that was part of a multi-year development program with Lockheed. Lockheed Martin printed both halves of the 46-in. titanium fuel tank domes on an American-made Sciaky EBAM 110 machine. The tanks met or exceeded NASA’s performance and reliability requirements, which will allow the tanks to become a standard product option on LM 2100 satellites. “Sciaky's EBAM technology is now the…
