Additional information

This paper reports a novel additive manufacturing process that for the first time provides parts with guaranteed microstructure and mechanical properties for aerospace (jonathan.meyer@eads.com). The results led to a rolling technology maturation programme, sponsored by Lockheed Martin (£185k plus their own £300k industrial scale facility, steve.t.burnage@lmco.com ), BAE Systems (£100k, Jagjit.sidhu@baesystems.com ), Air Products (£120k, WIKTORR@airproducts.com ), ARA (£80k, pcurtis@ara.co.uk), Bomardier Aerospace (£48k, gary.moore@aero.bombardier.com). Further funding has been awarded to extend the concepts to more complex structures (EPSRC grant EP/K029010, £489k) and to other materials (EU Contract 313781, total €18.8M, CU €250k).
