AILU Events. Back. AILU workshop: Additive layer manufacturing: laser techniques and opportunities. Sector: Laser Additive Manufacturing. Location: Airbus UK, Bristol (Filton)Attendees: All welcome. AILU one- day technology workshop with presentations, an exhibition and tour. Download a flyer here (PDF 2. B)About this workshop. Additive layer manufacturing (ALM) is an exciting new concept for the direct production and repair of components. The ALM concept produces metal parts through the deposition of material in incremental stages using one of a variety of techniques. Many of these are based around laser technology. Find out about the different processes and what their capabilities are, including latest developments in commercially available systems. The ALM concept potentially allows large improvements in performance, reduced cost and material consumption in the production and repair of high value components. This means that the scope and breadth of applications is extremely wide. Applications range from simple cladding for improvement in performance of pipes through to direct manufacture of highly complex engineered structures. Applications also include the salvage and repair of high value in- service components. Find out about these applications and see where and how ALM can be exploited. Identify potential commercial, technological and environmental benefits for your company. Due to the high potential of the ALM concept it is the subject of extensive research and the UK has a thriving community generating technological capability. This event will provide an insight into some of the current developments in the laser based ALM research field and will highlight what impact they may have in the future. Chair: Stewart Williams, Cranfield University. An Opportunity. One of the key features of an AILU workshop is the opportunity it provides for networking and for discussing technical matters: a comfortable environment, generous lunch and refreshment breaks, an exhibition and a clinic. The CSDC is the first of a small number of specialised centres around the UK, each focusing on a specific aspect of technology, all drawn together through the Government, industry and academia- backed National Composites Network (NCN). Stefan Ritt will help shape the conference program with the presentation “Metal. NRC Aerospace Manufacturing Technology Overview for NDIA. Manufacturing R&D Program Scope Four technology thrusts .

It will keep Airbus at the forefront of technologies key to successful development of future generations of aircraft, as well as providing capacity for development work for other sectors – including automotive, marine and construction. The focus of the centre’s activities include the development of low- cost technologies for wider structural applications of composite materials. The facilities at the centre will include: a clean room with laser positioning capability; autoclaves; a hot press; an automatic ply cutter; hot de- bulking facilities; a 5 axis router; a high temperature batch oven and supporting NDT equipment. Within the CSDC, Airbus has established a leading international centre of excellence in polymeric and metallic ALM technology capability and a world class team.
