How does CMSC enable IACMI members to meet USA manufacturing demands?

There is a need in the U.S. and globally to digitize manufacturing. The benefits are numerous, including faster and better decision making for teams across the supply chain. CMSC helps to bring composites supply chains into the digital world. 

How can IACMI members leverage access to this facility?

CMSC is a phenomenal facility. They can use the latest Dassault modeling and simulation technology, Thermwood additive manufacturing solutions, Wabash stamping forming facilities and much more. They have access to top human talent across the Purdue University faculty, researchers and graduate students. By investing in technology for the future, we are helping industry partners solve some of their hardest problems and manufacturing challenges.

Why is digitalization a competitive advantage?

Going digital enables businesses to do things better. Digital technologies have opened the door to achieve what could not be done previously. You can rapidly see and understand composite material properties, gleaning insights rapidly, without the brute force, trial and error of physical testing. Digitalization also vastly improves coordination and collaboration. All of these factors speed innovation.

How can members get involved with CMSC?

Reach out. Have a conversation. Let’s get to the bottom of what you need and how we can help. I am focused on understanding what our partners need so that we can work together to get it done.
