The digitisation of AM is a key priority for the NCAM. To this end, extensive simulation, connectivity and analytics research has been carried out across the full AM process chain, most recently showcased through our £14M Digital Reconfigurable AM facility for Aerospace (DRAMA) project. Examples of ongoing research within these areas include:
This area underpins the digitally-connected NCAM and enables practical evaluation and usage of state-of-the-art predictive and analytical capabilities, which can aid the implementation of AM. The key areas of expertise relevant to AM are:
