Description

Metallurgical Facility for Solid-State Additive Manufacturing. This project aims to create a Metallurgical Facility for Solid-State Additive Facility, to radically enhance the Australian capability for Additive Manufacturing. The Facility will revolutionise manufacturing research in Australia, by creating access and opportunity to develop novel materials and procedures via this rapidly growing technology. This strategic facility will give researchers a significant advantage in the development and optimisation of advanced manufacturing and maintenance technologies by providing a state-of-the-art friction-stir 3D printing hybrid manufacturing capabilities with substantial downstream benefits to the civil, transport, automotive, aerospace, mining, oil and gas, defence, recycling and medical industries.. Scheme: Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities. Field: 0910 - Manufacturing Engineering. Lead: Prof Anna Paradowska
