Additive Manufacturing Technical Support

Overview

Join to apply for the Additive Manufacturing Technical Support role at ORAU

About the Research

CCDC ARL Center for Agile Materials Manufacturing Science (CAMMS, https : / / www.arl.army.mil / opencampus / ?q=centers / camms) additive manufacturing (AM) laboratory is conducting state of the art transformative agile manufacturing, which includes but not limited to additive manufacturing (AM) also know as 3D printing and advanced manufacturing, research for developing Army relevant metallics, polymerics, and hybrid materials based AM feedstocks; and integrating the AM feedstocks to various advanced digital manufacturing processes in support of the Army Modernization Priorities (https : / / www.army.mil / standto / 2018-01-16).

Advances in additive and digital manufacturing create new sets of opportunities in expediting very complex designs to on-demand at the point of need manufacturing while presenting the unique challenges associated with the multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary researches require to solve the problems linked with the Army Modernization Priorities.

Responsibilities and Requirements

Exceptional candidates with Bachelor of Science in engineering or physics sought in the area of additive manufacturing processing with emphases on additive manufacturing pre-processing, post-processing, and in-situ and ex-situ processing data analyses. The position will require to work as a part of large AM applied research teams to develop various pre-, post-, and in-situ processes; to analyze ex-situ data; and to implement additive tool motion path controls. The desired digital manufacturing research competencies include computer aided design (CAD), computer aided manufacturing (CAM), manipulation of digital manufacturing software tools, 3D object slicers, support structure optimizers, computer programmings, and scripting languages. The main research focus will be the implementation of computer aided software and hardware tools, sample preparations and characterizations data, automations, digitization, and mechatronics for supporting the large AM research teams. This research opportunity aligns with the Army Modernization Priorities and CCDC ARL Essential Research Programs (ERP); and directly supports the Agile Manufacturing mission research program and the Science of AM for Next Generation Munition (SAMNGM) ERP. Candidates should demonstrate a relevant academic background with the research interests in additive or digital manufacturing and an ability to self-motivated, learn new skills, and work independently with limited supervisions.
