By combining additive and subtractive methods, we can create parts with unique properties and geometries.

This gear is half mild steel (rusted) and half stainless steel. 🔧

Jake Hamilton is a PhD student in ISE
"My research involves improving the strength and material quality in 3D printed metals. As reliance on sustainable remanufacturing and repair grows, advanced manufacturing technologies are key to widening the scope of applications."
