Additive manufacturing (AM), commonly known as 3D printing, is increasingly being used in helmet manufacturing due to its ability to create complex, lightweight, and highly customized designs. Unlike traditional molding processes, AM builds helmets layer by layer, allowing engineers to optimize internal lattice structures that enhance impact absorption while reducing overall weight. This technology also enables precise tailoring of helmet geometry to an individual’s head shape for improved comfort and safety. Advanced materials such as high-strength polymers and composite filaments can be integrated into the printing process to meet stringent protection standards. Furthermore, AM reduces material waste and accelerates prototyping, allowing manufacturers to test and refine new designs more efficiently. As a result, additive manufacturing is transforming helmet production across industries including sports, military, and transportation by enabling innovative structures, personalized fits, and faster development cycles. #designthinking #snsdesignthinkers #snsinstitutions
