        The software scans the object and manipulates the print path that conforms to the surface of the object. With this, manufacturers can reduce or eliminate post-printing requirements and improve efficiency in production as fewer labor and materials will be required.

 <p>The Australian company SPEE3D, which provides additive manufacturing solutions, took part in an advanced manufacturing demonstration hosted by the US Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) Army Research Laboratory (ARL) at the University of Tennessee Knoxville. The purpose of this event was to train soldiers without any previous knowledge in additive manufacturing to 3D print a required part for equipment repair in the field. Specifically, the piece to make was a transmission mount for a Bradley Fighting Vehicle, using SPEE3D's cold spray additive manufacturing technology.</p>
