Metinvest has supplied three 3D-printers to the National Guard of Ukraine.
The group has also provided 18 kg of special plastics to print spare parts.
“Such printing is very popular with the military. It was not easy finding these printers. It took us around 1.5 months,” Metinvest COO Alexandr Mironenko has said.
According to the commander of the National Guard’s 23rd brigade Andrei Belyaev, 3D-printers will be used to quickly print and replace some parts that can only be manufactured at such modern machines.
“In the first place, the printers will be used for automobiles. But also to repair recon drones used to guard important state objects,” he said. (Ukrainian metal)
