Fabrication Techniques Facilitated by Metallic 3D printing for Low-Volume Wheelchair and Assistive Technology Manufacturing and Customization

The goal of the project is the development of a systematic process to create (1) low volume metallic 3D printed components for wheel chairs and other assistive technology components, (2) production dies to form/bend tubing and sheet metal and (3) production molds to form complex shapes from composites using a mixture of chopped fibers/resin referred to as “forged Carbon Fiber”.
