LASIMM Project to Create Hybrid Additive Manufacturing Machine

Begun in October of 2016, LASIMM is an acronym for Large Additive Subtractive Integrated Modular Machine, and is focused on the development of a large-scale manufacturing machine that combines multiple additive and subtractive technologies. The project is scheduled to run through September 2019, and once completed, the machine is expected to have capabilities for additive manufacturing, machining, cold work, metrology and inspection, all resulting in the production of large engineering-grade parts with cost benefits that exceed their conventionally manufactured counterparts by 50%.
