Innovative Products
AM is creating new possibilities for developing architectural materials, through the design and realization of new geometries of lattice structures. The novel design and build opportunity emerging from the integration of other research programs will create enough knowledge to develop innovative products for industrial partners.
Biodegradable ceramic bio-structure
Advancing the capabilities of using architectural materials in AM provides a new opportunity in the field of medical structures. Medical structures (anatomically-shaped medical devices that fit the specific topography of the patient’s hip, jaw, knee, etc) would benefit from the lighter weight materials made using lattice structures to improve heat dissipation in parts such as confocal molds and heat exchangers.
