Award-winning3D打印机OEMGE添加剂has entered into a five-year cooperative research and development agreement (CRADA) with theUS Department of Energy’sOak Ridge National Laboratory（ORNL）。双方都同意将研究重点放在流程，材料和软件上，以推动工业化并支持更广泛地采用增材制造技术。雷电竞充值
“我们真的很期待运用两个组织的集体脑力和专业知识，以应对工业化的挑战，但我们也关注未来，” GE Addive的创新负责人乔什·穆克（Josh Mook）说。
“下一波添加剂技术已经在我们身上，无论是粘合剂喷气机还是软件的快速进步 - 因此，我们很高兴看到未来五年将带我们去哪里”
ORNLand GE partnership
ORNLis sponsored by the DOE, and conducts scientific programs that focus on materials, neutron science, energy, high-performance computing, systems biology and national security. Previously, ORNL had entered into a CRADA with 3D printer manufacturerArcam EBM在2012年，一家此后的公司been acquired by GE。
Ornl购买了第一个ARCAM EBM系统2009年，美国能源部在田纳西州诺克斯维尔的制造示范设施。ORNL与Arcam EBM团队合作，致力于为美国多个制造业的公司建立途径，以采用EBM技术。
ORNL与Arcam EBM在2012年的Crada着重于提高EBM技术的过程可靠性，将技术扩展到新材料系统，并验证钛Ti-6al-4V材料的性质。
现在，具有GE添加剂的新Crada已取代ORNL和Arcam EBM之间的较旧协议。它涵盖了所有GE添加剂设备，材料和工程服务，重点是开发新颖的添加剂技术并利用它们来创建商业产品。具体而言，两家公司将研究EBM和DMLM系统，材料建模和开发以及设备和流程的商业化的过程模拟方法以及原位监控和质量控制。
“We’re excited to again push the boundaries with GE and lower the barriers for widespread adoption of more efficient, low-cost manufacturing techniques,” added Moe Khaleel, associate laboratory director for Energy and Environmental Sciences at ORNL.
Developing additive manufacturing at ORNL
The development of its collaboration with GE is the latest in a series of updates surrounding ORNL and its efforts in advancing additive manufacturing technology.
In May 2019, ORNL announced an agreement with Ohio-based manufacturer of welding products林肯电气to advance the development of大规模金属添加剂制造雷电竞充值技术。
领先的工业3D打印机提供商Exonealso revealed that it was working with ORNL to预付活页夹技术用于沙子和金属3D打印机。雷电竞app下载自2015年以来，这两个组织一直在努力开发活页夹技术。
最近，美国能源部资助的实验室还与托莱多大学（Utoledo）在俄亥俄州进行研究汽车领域的高级材料。
