The Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation Institute, a federally-funded research and development organization of UI LABS, opened its doors to debut their state-of-the-art digital manufacturing lab and a cutting-edge workspace in May of 2015. Housed within the 94,000-square-foot facility on Goose Island in Chicago is a 24,000-square-foot glass-enclosed digital manufacturing lab containing seven dedicated manufacturing technology cells, which highlight multi-axis complex machining, standard machining, additive manufacturing integration, an environmentally-controlled metrology room, electronics, micro machining, robotic welding and fabrication. Each manufacturing cell features the latest in digital integration technologies, automation, robotics and communications.

DMDII’s goal is to provide U.S. factories with the tools, software and expertise they need to build things more efficiently, less expensively, and more quickly, so they can win more business and bring jobs back to the U.S. DMDII intends to become the nation's premier institution focusing on all aspects of digital manufacturing and design.

This is a must-see tour. Take the time to join your fellow Chapter members and learn how DMDII can help us become more productive and profitable.
