SIA Engineering to explore 3D printing tech in aircraft parts production

It signed a deal with Stratasys.

As part of efforts to accelerate adoption of 3D-printed production parts for commercial aviation, SIA Engineering Company Limited (SIAEC) tied up with 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions company Stratasys.

Under the Memorandum of Understanding signed by the two entities, they will explore a joint venture to be majority owned by SIAEC. The deal combines Stratasys’ deep know-how and expertise in additive manufacturing, including in the aerospace segment, with SIAEC’s comprehensive maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) service offerings to provide airline customers across the globe with scheduled maintenance and on-demand parts solutions.

The two are eyeing to establish a Singapore-based Additive Manufacturing Service Centre, offering design, engineering, certification support, and part production to SIAEC’s network of partners and customers. Stratasys will provide the domain expertise related to additive manufacturing and drive the development of Aerospace applications together with SIAEC.

SIAEC CEO Png Kim Chiang said the collaboration will strengthen SIAEC’s comprehensive suite of MRO solutions and enhance its support to customers, especially in the region.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
