HRL will develop embedded sensors for wireless structural health monitoring of load-bearing components in a new DARPA project. By embedding sensors during additive manufacturing processing, HRL aims to monitor stress and temperature of critical components to monitor loading and detect damage while also protecting the sensor from a harsh operating environment.
A team from HRL Laboratories, LLC, was among the winners of the 2017 R&D 100 Award, announced at the fourth annual R&D 100 Conference held November 16-17 in Orlando, FL.
Center will focus on breakthrough 3D printing technologies in ceramics and metallurgy. HRL Laboratories, LLC, has established a Center for Additive Materials to accelerate development of 3D printing of high-performance materials.
HRL has made a breakthrough in metallurgy with the announcement that researchers have developed a technique for successfully 3D printing high-strength aluminum alloys—including types Al7075 and Al6061.
Researchers at HRL Laboratories, LLC, have achieved a new milestone in 3D printing technology by demonstrating an approach to additively manufacture ceramics that overcomes the limits of traditional ceramic processing and enables high temperature, high strength ceramic components.
Penguins count on heat exchange to keep their feet warm. Cars rely on heat exchange to keep their engines cool. Researchers at HRL Laboratories, LLC, have announced that they have developed a miniaturized, high-performance heat exchange method that could be the first breakthrough in creating artificial organs.
