Researchers Granted $350K to Improve Methods in 3D Metal Printing

Thanks to a $350,000 grant from the National Science Foundation, the University of Pittsburgh's Swanson School of Engineering and Pittsburgh’s Aerotech, Inc. will now be working together to refine the process of 3D printing and additive manufacturing further. Tasked with finding a solution to issues caused by the inherent complexities and organic qualities found in 3D printing, the researchers will be developing new, fast computational methods for additive manufacturing. It’s hoped that through their R&D efforts, along with extensive testing, that they will prevent distortion and post-machining stress.
