Markforged systems enabled certified, flight-ready parts that cut lead times from months to weeks for VIP and government aircraft.
Marked improvement in spare-part supply chains arises from using the FX10 platform with Continuous Fiber Reinforcement to produce certified lighting and interior components. Spectrum Networks reports producing over
The main dependencies are regulatory sign-off and consistent quality from the print-to-install workflow. The announcement ties product capability to reduced downtime and traceability, but it does not disclose contract terms, recurring revenue, or certification scope across authorities. Monitor the pace of parts printed, any published FAA or other authority approvals, and follow-up orders over the next 6–18 months to confirm sustained commercial adoption.
WALTHAM, Mass., Oct. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nano Dimension Ltd. (Nasdaq: NNDM) (“Nano Dimension”), a leader in digital manufacturing solutions, today announced that ALOFT AeroArchitects and Spectrum Networks, LLC are using Markforged composite 3D printing systems to produce certified, flight-ready components for some of the world’s most exclusive aircraft — including those serving heads of state, governments, and ultra-high-net-worth individuals.
When aircraft undergo scheduled maintenance cycles, including major “C” and “D” checks that can last from six weeks to a year, operators often face challenges sourcing replacement parts for legacy systems which can take aircraft out of service for months. To address this, Spectrum Networks, LLC has adopted Markforged’s FX10 platform and Continuous Fiber Reinforcement (CFR) technology to design and manufacture replacement lighting and interior parts in a matter of weeks instead of months. Markforged’s precision-engineered components are then installed by ALOFT AeroArchitects, a leading completion and maintenance provider for VIP and special mission aircraft.
“Our customers expect absolute reliability. These aren’t just private jets; they’re aircraft transporting world leaders and governments,” said Colby Hall, Director of Technology at ALOFT AeroArchitects. “Markforged’s technology allows us to receive parts with unmatched precision and traceability while cutting lead times from up to six months to just a few weeks.”
Spectrum Networks’ SPN 31 LED retrofit is a prime example. Originally developed to replace outdated halogen fixtures on 20-year-old aircraft panels, the component was engineered using Markforged’s Continuous Fiber Reinforcement (CFR) technology to achieve superior structural integrity and a surface finish suitable for direct installation.
“You’re able to pull the part right off the machine and ship it out the door, as is. With Continuous Fiber Reinforcement, we noticed quickly that it gives us structural properties that we never thought were possible,” said Niel Gunnarson, President and COO of Spectrum Networks, LLC. “Our customers are able to use that information and propose designs that they need using those benefits.”
In 2024, Spectrum Networks produced over 10,000 certified flight parts using Markforged printers — each one helping customers modernize aircraft interiors, reducing downtime, and maintaining the operational readiness of some of the world’s most important fleets.
Each part undergoes automated laser micrometer inspection when printed on the FX10, generating a layer-by-layer conformance report — an innovation that has accelerated regulatory acceptance within the FAA and global aviation authorities and shows added value for additively manufactured parts for aerospace and aviation.
“ALOFT and Spectrum’s work demonstrates the power of Markforged to meet the highest levels of safety, quality, and performance demanded by the aerospace sector,” said Dave Stehlin, CEO at Nano Dimension. “This collaboration shows how our technology is enabling customers to eliminate supply chain delays and deliver certified parts on demand — even for the most demanding missions. Our connected additive solutions enable aerospace manufacturers to move faster, eliminate obsolescence, and modernize complex supply chains.”
