But, that\u2019s not to say it doesn\u2019t come with its fair share of challenges. Software developers and aerospace manufacturers alike can clearly see the potential of adopting additive manufacturing in part production. As more of the industry leans into the possibilities, they\u2019re seeing impressive ROIs that are easily justifying the switch to additive. Whether it\u2019s through lightweighting or easing the environmental burden, it\u2019s clearly the way of the future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Joining us again today is Dale Tutt, Vice President of Aerospace and Defense Industry at Siemens Digital Industries Software. As a key part of our industry strategy development around aerospace software, his valuable insight into the needs and perspective of customers helps our product teams develop innovative solutions that improve the overall experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this episode, you\u2019ll hear what we\u2019ve learned from the experiences of early adopters of additive technology, and the role software plays in the process. We\u2019ll touch on traceability, part production confidence, and where things stand in the regulatory realm. You\u2019ll also hear about a few of the remaining hurdles to industry-wide adoption, plus you\u2019ll get a peek into the future of aerospace technology to hear what\u2019s on the horizon.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Some Questions I ask:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What percentage of printing would you say is being done in-house versus at suppliers these days?
