機械臂 3D 打印船艇
聖彼德斯堡公司 Haddy 發布其 3D 打印軍用無人船艇
Haddy 運用大型機械人積層製造技術，生產出 TF-179 Drone Boat 無人水面航行器，於公司位於佛羅里達州聖彼德斯堡的設施建造而成。這個項目採用工業規模的機械人 3D 打印系統，以複合物料逐層建構大型結構組件。
Haddy 的廠房運作八套來自 CEAD 的大型積層製造系統，當中七套安裝於軌道之上，以擴大其工作範圍。公司過往曾採用類似方法，生產碳纖維強化的無人航行器船身，並曾展示由設計到海上試航僅需九日的最短時間紀錄。這種製造工序讓數碼設計變更得以實現，而毋須為傳統生產線重新調整工具設備。
對國防及海事營運商而言，這種方法有助支援更快速的原型製作、減少工具需求，並提供更靈活的小批量生產模式。這個項目反映市場對運用積層製造技術快速生產無人軍事平台的興趣日益增加。
英文原文
Haddy used large-format robotic additive manufacturing to produce the TF-179 Drone Boat, an unmanned surface vessel built at the company’s St. Petersburg, Florida facility. The project uses industrial-scale robotic 3D-printing systems to build large structural components layer by layer from composite materials.
Haddy’s facility operates eight large-format additive manufacturing systems from CEAD, including seven mounted on rails to extend their working range. The company has previously used similar methods to produce carbon-fiber-reinforced unmanned vessel hulls and has demonstrated design-to-sea-trial timelines as short as nine days. The manufacturing process allows digital design changes to be implemented without retooling conventional production lines.
For defense and maritime operators, the approach can support faster prototyping, reduced tooling requirements and more flexible low-volume production. The project reflects growing interest in additive manufacturing for rapidly produced unmanned military platforms.
