Advanced manufacturing is redefining what’s possible across aerospace, automotive, and nuclear energy—and it’s happening now at the Department of Energy's Manufacturing Demonstration Facility (MDF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
MDF is developing next-generation materials, scaling production of large, complex components, and integrating physics-based models with AI-driven data systems to transform smart manufacturing. From neutron insights at the smallest scale to full-scale robotic systems, this work is enabling faster, more efficient, and more reliable production.
MDF’s Technical Collaboration Program brings industry, academia, and government together to solve real manufacturing challenges—accelerating technology adoption, strengthening supply chains, and advancing U.S. competitiveness.
If you’re looking to de-risk innovation and move technologies from concept to deployment, let’s connect.
