Center of additive technologies
Undereslab proposes to establish an additive technologies center with the following units included:
-
An analytical department - chemical analysis of materials, microscopy, radiography, etc.
-
Raw materials division - manufacture of raw materials for 3D printing and other processes - wire, powder, ceramics, composites, etc.
-
3D printing research department - development of printing technologies from various raw materials, production of printed samples for analytical studies;
-
Intellectual department - preparation of intellectual property materials, development of principles for creating new materials and alloys using computer technology and artificial intelligence;
-
Mechanical section – investigating mechanical properties of obtained samples, mechanical processing of products, and sample preparation for research.
