Team Ad­dit­ive Man­u­fac­tur­ing

The focus of research in additive manufacturing is on process and component design. Key areas include process parameter development and process optimization. Mechanical property testing and microstructure analysis support improvements in quality, performance, and process efficiency.

In component design, simulations and topology optimization are used to create structures that are lightweight, strong, and efficient. Simulation allows evaluation of design variants before physical production, which saves time and reduces costs. Overall, the work in additive manufacturing helps improve the process and expand its use in mobility applications.
