Agile Metals Additive Manufacturing Research

About the Research

CCDC ARL Center for Agile Materials Manufacturing Science (CAMMS, https://(Use the "Apply for this Job" box below).) additive manufacturing (AM) laboratory is conducting state‑of‑the‑art transformative agile manufacturing. The work includes, but is not limited to, additive manufacturing (also known as 3D printing) and advanced manufacturing research for developing Army-relevant metallics, polymerics, and hybrid materials‑based AM feed stocks; and integrating these feed stocks into various advanced digital manufacturing processes in support of the Army Modernization Priorities (https://).

Advances in additive and digital manufacturing create new opportunities to expedite complex designs to on‑demand, point‑of‑need manufacturing while addressing multidisciplinary challenges linked to Army Modernization Priorities.

The candidate will:

• Scientifically assess the effects of metal AM processing independently.
• Work with ARL personnel to build baselines and optimize metal prints for qualitative and quantitative evaluation.
• Disseminate findings within ARL through verbal communication.
• Collaborate in a team environment.
