Additive Manufacturing (Page 4)

This past September, EWI was awarded a $17 million, 3-year contract with the U.S. Air Force to develop convergent manufacturing (CM) platforms for maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) sustainment. The project is now being managed under the auspices of the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). Technical development work is already taking place at EWI’s labs...

Magnetic materials are essential to electric propulsion systems.  Key attributes of these materials include resistivity and grain size. Refining grain size increases magnetic saturation limits, and thus allows for lighter, more compact motor designs. Using powder-based processing is one way to achieve fine grain size, but the main methods for doing so are energy intensive,...

By Henry Cialone President & CEO, EWI EWI is a leader in innovating processes for manufacturers. One way we deliver those processes to our industries is through commercialization of intellectual property. Typically, this is done by identifying a partner to license the patented technology. On occasion, when there isn’t a logical licensee, we stand up...
