Giving industry an additive manufacturing edge
Putting 3D printing power to work for civilian, military and dual-use applications
"Funding from the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) in 2013 allowed Mohawk College to become the first educational institution in Ontario to acquire a metal 3D printer. Subsequent CFI funding and other investments have kept them at the leading edge.
Today, the Additive Manufacturing Innovation Centre (AMIC) works with a range of industry partners to solve their manufacturing challenges, optimize processes and develop new products using a suite of equipment for the three main types of 3D printing: fused deposition modelling, binder jetting and selective laser sintering.
Since 2014, they’ve undertaken more than 350 applied research projects. Those include dual-use and defence projects for partners like WESCAM, Burloak Technologies, MDA and General Dynamics."
