Next Generation Manufacturing Canada

Purpose

The program will provide companies with project funding support to develop a better understanding of the advantages and business opportunities resulting from the adoption of additive manufacturing (AM) technology and processes including cost savings, reduced new product development cycle times and improved design and efficiency. It will also allow for them to develop direct experience of the capability of AM to produce low volume parts for many applications including the repair of high performance/low cost tools, dies and plastic and composite molds for stamping (conformal cooling), part consolidation and light-weighting parts.
