Workshop | Materials Characterization Facility x Rigaku X Ray Workshop

The 20k ft² Advanced Manufacturing Pilot Facility (AMPF) operated by Georgia Tech is being renovated into a 75k+ ft² AI Manufacturing Pilot Facility (AIMPF). Manufacturers cannot accept 100% of the risk and cost of maturing AI manufacturing technologies beyond proof-of-concept demonstrations without detriment to existing operations and supply chains. AIMPF will provide a world-leading environment for cooperative industry-academia-government pilot trials and innovation of new technologies, cybersecurity games, and workforce training to innovate, transition, and create AI manufacturing technologies and workforce without risk. AIMPF will operate reconfigurable, digitally integrated, automated test tracks for manufacturing with structural and energy materials spanning synthesis, semi-finished goods, finished goods, manufacturing quality systems, characterization and metrology, reducing energy footprints and CO₂ emissions, resource management, recycling capabilities, data management, mm-wave wireless communications, and cyber-physical security. AIMPF extends the concept of “self-driving labs” to create a semi-autonomous user facility.
