“Open Mind’s commitment to the Manufacturing 4.0 Consortium and support of manufacturing education enables students to leverage top-tier CAD/CAM software for collaborative development of hybrid AM/CNC technologies. Together, we look forward to pushing the boundaries of precision manufacturing,” stated Kyle Saleeby, Manufacturing 4.0 Consortium’s research programme director and research engineer at Georgia Tech.
Consortium research projects cover an extensive range of topics that seek cost effectiveness, piloting new manufacturing systems, accelerating product development cycles, and adopting Industry 4.0 technologies. In addition to technology development focused on Additive Manufacturing, participating Georgia Tech graduate students have continued to push forth research positions within the US National laboratory system, such as Sandia, NIST, Oak Ridge, and Los Alamos National Labs, or have taken industrial roles in top engineering and manufacturing companies including Lockheed-Martin, Boeing, Caterpillar, Ford, Delta TechOps, and Georgia Pacific.
