The LTI team took to the trails this past weekend!

Employees and their family members joined us for some fresh air, exercise, and quality time together. It was a great day to step away from the everyday routine, enjoy the outdoors, and have some fun with the LTI family!

Events like these are a great reminder of several LTI Way fundamentals: Live a Healthy Lifestyle, Be Caring, Collaborate, and Keep Things Fun.

Thanks to everyone who joined us!

What if a 3D-printed aerospace component could be qualified while it was being built?

NASA is exploring exactly that with its latest "born qualified" additive manufacturing initiative.

The program uses real-time, layer-by-layer inspection to monitor metal additive manufacturing during the build- helping identify potential issues before the part is finished.

For flight-critical components, that's a major shift.

Instead of relying primarily on testing after manufacturing, the industry is moving toward capturing more quality data during the manufacturing process itself.

At LTI, we're proud to support the broader goal of building confidence in advanced manufacturing through material characterization, mechanical testing, metallography, surface analysis, and NDT.

Because when the component is mission critical, quality can't be an afterthought.

The future of aerospace 3D printing isn't just about what we can make. It's about what we can prove.

A new edition of ISO/ASTM 52941 is moving toward publication, addressing qualification and requalification of laser metal powder-bed-fusion machines used for aerospace applications.

As additive manufacturing continues moving from prototyping toward production, standards like this reinforce the importance of reliable, repeatable processes - and thorough testing.

From chemistry and mechanical properties to metallography, surface characterization, and nondestructive testing, testing helps turn innovative manufacturing into trusted performance.

At LTI, we're proud to support manufacturers as additive manufacturing continues to evolve.

Reshoring is putting a bigger spotlight on material traceability.

For aerospace and defense manufacturers, sourcing domestic or qualifying-country material is only part of the equation.

You also need to be able to prove it.

Heat certifications. Material Test Reports. Chemistry and mechanical test results. Melt information. Chain of custody.
These records can play a critical role in demonstrating material origin, properties, and compliance with applicable defense requirements.

DFARS 252.225-7009 generally requires covered specialty metals in applicable defense-delivered items to be melted or produced in the U.S., its outlying areas, or a qualifying country, with specific exceptions.

As reshoring continues to influence the aerospace and defense supply chain, traceability isn't just documentation - it's a competitive advantage.

LTI helps manufacturers verify and characterize materials so they can have greater confidence in what goes into mission-critical products.
