University of Dayton Research Institute at VALIMET

February 24, 2025

We were honored by a visit of a delegation from University of Dayton Research Institute to VALIMET, Inc. Our trusted partner and guide for many years is the legendary Lee Wardle.

Fernando Vazquez, Bob Washington, Justen Schaefer and the rest of the team have been studying our Aluminum Alloy Powders for many years, focusing on Cold Spray and Additive Manufacturing.

Large part of their hard work’s output is classified and therefore is not listed on our Literature webpage. Yet, we want to emphasize that we consider “Center of Excellence” the most fitting term to describe UDRI.

See our President Chris Adam, our Technology Manager Ian McCarthy and our Materials and Process Engineering Manager Dustin Hickman with our guests enjoying a walk in the VALIMET Orchard (we were just around 60°F – so chilly).
