The Technical Review & Exchange presents research and development from America Makes contracted additive manufacturing projects, with project engineers, managers, and partners sharing project progress and advancing the additive manufacturing industrial base. Members and nonmembers are welcome; non-government attendees must meet the stated U.S.-person and DLA certification requirements. The agenda covers trusted metal additive manufacturing for critical components; 3D-printed molds and cores for sand casting; aluminum and nickel-alloy material datasets and allowables; sustainable operations and operational qualification; powder-supplier equivalency testing; circular additive-powder recycling; joint aluminum manufacturing maturation; printed-sand equipment; lightweight additive structures; performance-based qualification; Ti-6Al-4V corrosion; multi-laser powder-bed fusion data for Aheadd® CP1 aluminum; and additive manufacturing interoperability, including EQUIP. Other topics include propulsion, silicon-carbide production, data-driven qualification, airworthiness, C-103 for high-temperature and space applications, aircraft and rocket-engine components, thermal management and coatings for high-temperature vehicles, nickel-based superalloys, Future Vertical Lift, and metal-composite interfaces. The program also includes a Northrop Grumman startup panel and tours.
