2023 SOFSA 06 Near-Net Rapid Prototyping in Metals

Develop and demonstrate rapid prototyping technologies and devices that can create parts for vehicle, weapons, and other applications from ferrous and nonferrous metals. Devices must be portable (fit in bed of pickup truck). Material removal (machining) processes may be combined with additive manufacturing in a single device. “Lost foam” fabrication may also be considered.
