00:08.659 --> 00:11.350
The on demand . Manufacturing or O D M

00:11.359 --> 00:13.250
lab is composed of an additive

00:13.260 --> 00:16.069
manufacturing lab and a machine shop .

00:16.209 --> 00:18.600
The space has more than 15 machines

00:18.610 --> 00:20.870
with a large range of capabilities .

00:21.870 --> 00:24.520
This example was printed as a flexible

00:24.530 --> 00:26.920
resin which allows the lab to print

00:26.930 --> 00:29.600
tubing and gasket materials . It was

00:29.610 --> 00:31.639
created using their small scale

00:31.649 --> 00:34.849
additive resin based machine . Another

00:34.860 --> 00:36.650
impressive machine is their

00:36.659 --> 00:38.650
intermediate additive machine . It

00:38.659 --> 00:40.979
allows the lab to print complex and

00:40.990 --> 00:43.560
movable parts through a water soluble

00:43.569 --> 00:46.240
fill that is easily removed . This is a

00:46.250 --> 00:48.740
rare capability that saves the command

00:48.750 --> 00:50.619
time and money . When printing

00:50.709 --> 00:53.529
intricate designs , it can also create

00:53.540 --> 00:55.729
customizable tools with continuous

00:55.740 --> 00:57.930
fiber reinforcement that prevents the

00:57.939 --> 01:00.750
deterioration of the tool . A tool can

01:00.759 --> 01:03.349
be designed as any shape or size and as

01:03.360 --> 01:05.860
strong or flexible as necessary for a

01:05.870 --> 01:08.449
specific job . A wrench can be as

01:08.459 --> 01:10.739
strong as an aluminum one but half the

01:10.750 --> 01:13.870
cost . This is the large scale additive

01:13.879 --> 01:16.290
machine . It has the capability to

01:16.300 --> 01:18.849
print items with dimensional accuracy

01:18.860 --> 01:22.279
down to 5/1000 of an inch but is also

01:22.290 --> 01:25.050
able to print items as large as a cubic

01:25.059 --> 01:27.589
meter . Here it is printing inserts for

01:27.599 --> 01:30.459
a diy mask kit to help provide personal

01:30.470 --> 01:32.930
protective equipment from COVID-19 .

01:33.769 --> 01:35.809
The metal additive manufacturing

01:35.819 --> 01:37.986
machine within the lab supports making

01:37.986 --> 01:40.580
parts like this . It is a metal 3D

01:40.589 --> 01:42.610
printed impeller that was created

01:42.620 --> 01:44.860
through a specialized printing process

01:44.870 --> 01:47.760
using metal filament . It is a safer

01:47.769 --> 01:50.089
and more durable process and a more

01:50.099 --> 01:52.860
cost effective option for unique parts .

01:53.529 --> 01:56.349
The O D M lab also has a machine shop

01:56.360 --> 01:58.620
on site that allows lab personnel to

01:58.629 --> 02:01.080
complete traditional metal work such as

02:01.089 --> 02:03.540
bending and cutting pieces like these .

02:03.900 --> 02:06.580
The lab has the ability to scan objects

02:06.589 --> 02:09.149
and create a digital 3D model of it

02:09.160 --> 02:11.220
using light and then use that

02:11.229 --> 02:14.000
information to 3d print the object .

02:14.009 --> 02:16.300
The scan can also detect color and

02:16.309 --> 02:18.779
texture along with additive and

02:18.789 --> 02:21.389
subtract manufacturing . The lab has

02:21.399 --> 02:23.970
the capability to etch cut and engrave

02:23.979 --> 02:26.710
materials using a dual optic laser

02:26.720 --> 02:29.800
machine . A key service offered is

02:29.809 --> 02:32.080
general engineering support . Lab

02:32.089 --> 02:34.145
personnel are all trained in various

02:34.145 --> 02:35.922
engineering backgrounds and are

02:35.922 --> 02:37.919
available to assist IP T S with

02:37.929 --> 02:39.929
everything related to designing and

02:39.929 --> 02:42.440
producing a product . Lab personnel

02:42.449 --> 02:44.860
have also created both in class and

02:44.869 --> 02:47.091
virtual training to learn about each of

02:47.091 --> 02:49.479
the techniques in the lab . Individuals

02:49.490 --> 02:51.240
can then take Nick generated

02:51.250 --> 02:53.800
assessments to become certified to use

02:53.809 --> 02:56.080
the equipment on their own . The

02:56.089 --> 02:58.119
overall benefit of the on demand .

02:58.130 --> 03:00.330
Manufacturing lab is that they can

03:00.339 --> 03:03.199
research and design a variety of tools

03:03.210 --> 03:05.559
and parts for the command and industry

03:05.570 --> 03:08.690
partners then create prototypes and

03:08.699 --> 03:11.610
support low rate initial production at

03:11.619 --> 03:12.779
Ny Atlantic .
