Industrial Tours

This comprehensive tour will encompass five key destinations, providing attendees with a detailed exploration of our cutting-edge facilities. 

Firstly, participants will visit our Gas Atomization facility, followed by an in-depth overview of our Metal 3D lab. This segment will cover various systems including laser powder bed fusion, laser directed energy deposition, binder jetting systems, and a sintering furnace. Next on the itinerary is our 3D ceramic lab, where attendees will learn about our Lithography-based Ceramics Manufacturing and Laser-Induced Slipcasting-based ceramic 3D-printers. Subsequently, the tour will proceed to the large-scale additive manufacturing lab, offering insights into our robotic wire arc additive manufacturing platform. Finally, attendees will have the opportunity to explore our main materials characterization lab, which will feature demonstrations of our state-of-the-art SEM/EDX, FIB, XRD systems, and micro-CT unit. 

It’s worth noting that the facilities showcased in this tour are intricately linked to the themes of the “Advanced Manufacturing and Materials” symposium as well as “Light Metals for Transportation: Marine, Aviation, and Ground Application” symposium, providing a practical complement to the symposiums’ content.
