Northrop Grumman & Fortify Resource Page

We’ve curated this content for Northrop Grumman and hope that you find it valuable resource as you research Fortify and all that our platform has to offer. At a high-level Fortify is transforming the 3D printing industry with our patented DCM (Digital Composite Manufacturing) platform. DCM delivers new levels of additively manufactured part performance by introducing functional additives to photopolymers. By combining a deep understanding of material science with high-performance mixing, magnetics, and polymer physics, Fortify is able to produce custom microstructures in high-resolution 3D printed parts. We are an application-focused company targeting: mold tooling, RF & microwave devices, technical ceramics, and ESD.

Below you’ll find several resources as they relate to our applications.
