Wild Hornets drones are scaling production! The 3D printer farm has grown from seven last April to nearly 300—one of Ukraine’s biggest. STING drone making has exploded to destroy the Shaheds. More parts are now made in-house with a bank of new CNC printers — four funded by donors. Thank you!

  1. That’s great work. 

    But I do wonder is there not a point where just injection molding them makes more sense? That way you could make a set every few seconds with much cheaper plastics

  2. Just glad you guys are rolling them out and I enjoyed the video the picture in my mind was way off y’all have a shit load of 3Ds and I’m sure it’s 24 7 so stay strong it’s looking better every day and take a few more refinery’s of line.

  3. 3D printing has to be the least efficient way to scale production. Slow, expensive, uses a shit-load of electricity. 3D printing is best for prototyping, then use injection molding or stamping or other processes to turn out millions of parts per month, cheaply.

  4. I remember when hornets was testing about few drones per week depending on donations from fellas and NAFO was spreading the word about it. now look at it is beautiful!! Glory to Ukraine!

  5. Why not even one Prusa from Czech Republic? Only Chinese BambuLab.

  6. Ok, but… What’s the point of using 3D printers for mass production? Isn’t cheaper and faster to have injection molds for this production scale?
