…resistance and toughness for a wide range of applications. University of Pittsburgh with Ansys: “A Computational Tool for Simulating the Sintering Behavior in Binder Jet Additive Manufacturing.” This project aims to develop a computational tool for simulating the deformation and porosity resulting from the sintering of binder jet 3D printed parts made of 316L stainless steel powders. Villanova University: “Wetting of Binder Solution on Porous Bed of Microparticles.” This project will investigate how to best wet porous particles with binder and generate guidelines or parameters for this form of 3D printing.

…The campus is also in close proximity to the University of Pittsburgh, which has a workforce development program related to AM; Robert Morris University, which also offers engineering programs in AM; and Carnegie Mellon University. “Workforce development is a key component of this,” Storer says. “Additive manufacturing is still in its infancy, and it is advancing faster than the workforce. We have a great university system here in Pennsylvania, and the schools want to get on board and train this ‘new collar’ workforce.” In addition, both America Makes and ARM (Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing) are less than an hour’s drive…
