Get Additive Manufacturing Expertise and Industrial Equipment to Launch Your Commercial Applications at the Digital Transformation Center
In addition to receiving their very own state-of-the-art 3D printer and training, Project DIAMOnD participating companies now have access to additional industrial 3D Printing equipment and expert assistance via the Project DIAMOnD Digital Transformation Center (DTC), located in Auburn Hills, MI.
Work with a team of additive manufacturing experts to identify applications and develop new revenue streams using the equipment and software available at the DTC for polymer and metal physical or digital products.
Project DIAMOnD is proud to have the US Center for Advanced Manufacturing (Troy, MI) as a champion organization. They share the same mission—to strengthen the manufacturing landscape. The Center works towards this goal through initiatives that promote advanced manufacturing locally and nationwide. They are also the first US entity to partner with the World Economic Forum to help advance its global manufacturing initiatives and they are one of 15 World Economic Forum Centers for the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
The Next Generation of Manufacturing
Cost Efficiency
3D printing can be more cost-effective compared to traditional manufacturing processes, especially for low-volume production and complex parts.
More from Prototype to Production
The technology allows for faster development of prototypes, speeding up the overall design process and moving to production faster.
Greater Design Freedom
3D printing allows for the production of parts and products with complex geometries that would be difficult or impossible to create with traditional manufacturing methods.
Competitiveness and Resiliency
It offers the ability to compete with larger manufacturers by providing unique services or products that may not be able to deliver.
Reduced Lead Times
Directly creating the final product without the need for molds or tools can significantly decrease production times.
Access to Production at Scale without the Capex Investments
Companies can use the Project DIAMOnD Network to execute recipes without compromising their IP.
