Additive manufacturing center to hold open house
The Additive Manufacturing and Design Center, the most technologically advanced 3-D printing and design center in the United States, will hold an open house on June 30 from noon to 4 p.m. at the TechWorks Campus in Waterloo. The center is a collaboration of the University of Northern Iowa Metal Casting Center and Hawkeye Community College. The location focuses on additive manufacturing and is home to the Ex-One S-Max, the largest 3-D printer of its type in North America. “Our goal is to make the design center at the UNI Metal Casting Center the go-to place in Iowa, if not the Midwest, to expand additive manufacturing training of this kind,” said Randy Pilkington, director of the UNI Business and Community Services said.
