Facilities & Services
The facilities at STAM enable our world class research in Additive Manufacturing, Machining and Joining, and Manufacturing Process Analytics.
These wide ranging capabilities, combined with our expertise and knowledge, allow us to offer services such as rapid prototyping, mechanical testing, imaging microscopy, rapid evaluation, and data logging and analysis.
Design for Additive Manufacturing (DFAM) is design for manufacturability as applied to additive manufacturing (AM). STAM uses a range of design methods and tools to fully explore and optimise functional performance and other key product life-cycle considerations such as manufacturability, reliability, and cost when manufacturable items are subjected to the capabilities of additive manufacturing technologies.
