Cumberland Additive will leverage recent growth in the aerospace, defense and space sectors by expanding operations to the Neighborhood 91 (N91) Additive Manufacturing (AM) production campus at Pittsburgh International Airport. Cumberland sees this expansion as an opportunity to grow its core competencies in metal 3D printing and CNC machining while benefiting customers with the turnkey value-added solutions offered by the N91 AM ecosystem.

Cumberland Additive, headquartered in Pflugerville, Texas, offers series production of parts and engineering design services in both metals and polymer materials using powder bed fusion technology. Both locations will continue to serve major markets such as aerospace, defense, space, energy and nuclear industries.

“Consolidating the supply chain for AM at the innovative Neighborhood 91 production campus helps us mitigate risks, costs and complexities for our customers,” says John Jenkins, Cumberland Additive president. “We’re excited to be part of the neighborhood to work together to further ignite the industry.”

In anticipation of the move, Cumberland is developing a relationship with N91 anchor tenant Wabtec Corp. to support their CNC machining needs for complex AM parts. This relationship will enable Wabtec and Cumberland to leverage each other’s technical “know-how” and manufacturing capabilities to unlock the value of AM for their respective noncompeting markets.

“We are pleased to welcome Cumberland Additive to Neighborhood 91,” says Philip Moslener, vice president of Advanced Technologies at Wabtec. “Cumberland is an established additive manufacturing supplier, who brings a unique expertise and skill set. Their addition to Neighborhood 91 will build upon the collaborative spirit of this community and accelerate the development, adoption and application of additive technology.”

The company says this expansion is a regional effort. By providing a physical location at N91, Cumberland plans to work with local universities and workforce development agencies to train workers to support the growing AM industry.
