NIAR joins ASTM Intl. Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence as first strategic partner

ASTM Intl. has announced that Wichita State University’s (WSU) National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) will join its Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence as its first strategic partner. ASTM and four founding partners recently launched the center to support R&D that advances additive manufacturing (AM) standards, which in turn will drive commercialization of AM technologies.

NIAR, an industry-focused research institute at WSU, plans to be engaged in the Center of Excellence’s R&D activities, education and workforce development efforts, and other functions and programs.
