Surface Polishing of Additively Manufactured Aluminum-Based Components

Aluminum Additive Manufacturing allows for rapid printing, reduced lead times, and complex designs and features not possible with traditional manufacturing methods. As-printed AM components inherently have rough surface textures that cause component failure and inhibit implementation. Our technology is working to resolve these defects on Aluminum components.

Automated-Track Electrospinning

A new method of electrospinning which collects nanofiber between a set of automated tracks. The tracks can be set to variable angles in order to draw the fibers to a predetermined ratio; altering fiber physical structure, mechanical strength and electrical properties.
