AML3D Limited (ASX: AL3) (“AML3D” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce excellent first stage product testing progress with Lightforce Australia Pty Ltd (“Lightforce”) for the development of next-generation ‘madeto-fit’ titanium body armour.

This allows both groups to move forward with the next stages of product development trials under the terms of a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) between the groups. These successful tests have significantly increased the materiality of the MOU to AML3D given both groups now have a clear path towards product development.

AML3D is an ideal partner for Lightforce given the advanced capabilities of AML3D’s Wire Additive Manufacturing (WAM®) technology. WAM® possesses the ability to produce variable, made-to-fit, components and plates rapidly, a function not possible using traditional subtractive techniques (forging, casting).

WAM® produced titanium body armour has the potential to provide enhanced strength and reduced weight, resulting in the highest degree of protection for defence and law enforcement personnel.

This truly disruptive concept would be a world-first offering in an industry expected to exceed US$3.0bn by 2025 (CAGR of 5.5%)[1] . Progression to commercialisation has the potential to result in significant contract manufacturing revenues for AML3D as the product is adopted throughout Lightforce’s established customer base.
