Wichita State's National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) has purchased a new professional grade metal additive manufacturing system. The RPM Innovations 222 Standard System is a professional-grade system with powder-fed laser metal deposition technology with 2 ft3 build capacity and a rotary table for cladding or building around a shaft. The system, which was manufactured in the U.S., will be ready to take on client jobs by late July after routine installation, calibration and technician training.
