Research on Additive Manufacturing Processes
Additive manufacturing processes have seen burgeoning capabilities in the past decade including:
- increases in speed
- material qualification
- design systems
- applications development
Such processes have enabled an unprecedented freedom of design in conjunction with a wide range of materials.
Amongst the processes researched at the Centre for Additive Manufacturing are included:
The Centre for Additive Manufacturing has a variety of commercial and bespoke AM equipment, as well as advanced characterisation tools to support our research. They cover features in the nano, micro and macro scale and applications, from consumer 3D printing to high-end metallic, polymeric and biomaterial-compatible systems.
