Lightweight components offer the aerospace and automotive industries the means to reduce energy consumption and emissions through the development of lighter vehicles, and provide other industrial sectors with flexible materials to develop new innovative tools. Manufacturing such high quality lightweight components however has consistently been a challenge; vibration and pressure during the milling process often means that manual labour is required to finish off production, thus ramping up costs.
