Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Carderock Division and John Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory are exploring the use of Additive Manufacturing (AM) to produce customized Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) propellers.
The propellers can be produced on-demand from both metal and plastic material--without inventory concerns--and could be tailored to specific mission requirements. Furthermore, since the AM process itself does not require tooling or fixturing, it enables rapid turnaround from customized design changes to final parts.
