In past years, efforts to adopt electric technologies in transportation manufacturing have been focused on the automotive sector. Today, however, industries including aerospace, shipbuilding, and commercial trucking are incorporating electromobility innovations to create products with lower emissions and greater energy efficiency than their traditional alternatives. E-mobility solutions offer attractive benefits, but there are challenges to...

Robotic directed energy deposition technology offers a robust, multi-faceted process for building and repairing large-scale components. EWI is currently involved in a broad research program to mature DED technology for use in the aerospace, energy, defense, shipbuilding, and heavy manufacturing industries. As part of this effort, EWI has installed a Cloos robotic DED system for...

Maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) operations are essential to sustain and extend the life of numerous systems including aerospace, energy, defense, heavy equipment, and railroad. Aircraft engine MRO alone is a $30B global industry, projected to grow beyond $40B within five years. Overall, global aircraft MRO will exceed $100B annually within the next few years. ...
