Private equity (PE) groups and their portfolio companies are actively acquiring aerospace and defense (A&D) businesses – PE involvement represents almost 40% of A&D deal activity. Many groups are serial acquirers with multiple interests. The most active PE firms in the sector include Acorn Growth Companies, AE Industrial Partners, Arlington Capital, and Liberty Hall Partners, while groups such as Blackstone, The Carlyle Group, GenNx360, JLL Partners, and Trive Capital also maintain a presence. In all, more than 100 PE firms have one or more portfolio companies focused on aerospace.

At this point, the internet is crawling with butt-kicking homebrew 3D printers made with extruded profiles, but it’s easy to underestimate the difficulty in getting there. Sure, most vendors sell a suite of interlocking connectors, but how well do these structural framing systems actually fare when put to the task of handling a build with sub-millimeter tolerances?

A second extrusion source said that the material is likely being shipped out of China as 6063 extrusions.

If you are involved in the Global Aluminium Conductor Steel Reinforced industry or intend to be, then this study will provide you comprehensive outlook.

Steps in today’s production scenario include designing the production part, designing the equipment and molds to produce a prototype, testing the prototype, revising the prototype and the tooling, and repeating the process. AM eliminates the time and expense for tooling and retooling, moving directly to prototype. Prototype updates can be made in CAD files, allowing companies to quickly make multiple design iterations. According to a Deloitte study (see sidebar below), research has shown that when aerospace and defense (A&D) companies switch from traditional manufacturing to AM, time savings in prototyping range from 43% to 75%. This is important to an industry where backlogs have become the norm.

The high intensities attained offer a lithium detection limit in the range of 50 – 100 ppm (0.005 – 0.01%). It is also possible to modify the Z platform with a third spectrometer (Z-300), which extends the range for measuring the brighter 670.8nm line if it is necessary to have detection limits in the 10ppm range (Figure 5). It is possible to upgrade any Z-200 to the Z-300 whenever needed.

Although initially, I had some buyers remorse once I discovered that the Sur-Ron was not going to come close to outperforming my 5.05″ tired efat bikes like the Phatter Phukker in the snow, after a year of usage I can say that the money I spent on the Sur-Ron Light Bee was well spent. I expect the bike to last for many more years and provide a lot of fun and utility in this new ‘Electric Tree Farming Reality’ that I am trying to create with my wife. We just finished working all fall on a 750 Sq ft unheated greenhouse that we are going to grow food in all winter, and I have to say that it has worked out better than I ever thought it could. Just because no one is doing these kinds of things in the cold and snowy climates of Upstate NY doesn’t mean that they can’t be done. In these dark times, there is nothing more important than staying positive and being part of the solution, not the problem. We love to do the undoable and with crazy projects like my 3000W Cyclone powered wheelbarrow and 5000W electric lawn tractor are continuing to move into completely uncharted territory.
