America Makes, a US public-private partnership focused on additive manufacturing, and the National Center for Defense Manufacturing and Machining (NCDMM) have announced two project calls worth a combined $25.6 million. The funding is split between the $12.4 million Maturation Initiative for Additive Metals Interchangeability (MIAMI) and the $13.2 million INtegrated System for In-situ Testing & Evaluation (INSITE). Both programs focus on metal additive manufacturing for defense applications, with MIAMI centered on material substitution and INSITE aimed at integrating in-situ monitoring with post-build inspection. MIAMI is funded through the Office of the Under Secretary of War, Acquisition and Sustainment, Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment Program. The effort is intended to validate
