Various organizations within the Department of Defense (DoD), its contractors, and research partners have been developing and implementing cold spray technology for nearly two decades. The technology improves operational readiness, sustainment and maintenance costs. Additionally, it is being evaluated for aerospace use and building new parts from scratch. Although cold spray technology is sufficiently advanced, it is in the early stages of implementation. Join this panel session to gain a better understanding of the ongoing and planned DoD cold spray programs and how the DoD intends to broaden cold spray applications and benefits.ancasr
