Is heat treating possible while pierside in rainy, tropical Hawaii? Even within the confines of a stationary production facility, metal #additivemanufacturing still has its challenges. It’s not as simple as print and install. Post-processing and machining to tight tolerances for expeditionary use requires a sophisticated workflow and transportable equipment to move at the speed of combat. Achieving great results in these conditions is somewhat uncharted territory for the United States Department of Defense, but CAMRE at the Naval Postgraduate School and SPEE3D are rapidly developing best practices and exploring new materials to meet the demands of expeditionary #advancedmanufacturing for maritime applications. Who else has done a heat treatments in the field? Is expeditionary metal #AM going to be vital in a future conflict? #irttw

I’m curious what the tolerances and finishes would be on a Leslie steam regulating governor top hat. Previously a standard for machining at sea

Great job by the CAMRE & FLEETWERX team from Naval Postgraduate School.
