At the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center’s (ERDC) Information Technology Laboratory, researchers are shaping the factory of the future — where artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), high-performance computing and cybersecurity come together to transform mission-critical manufacturing and operations.

From real-time, AI-powered monitoring of additive manufacturing processes to digital twin technology and closed-loop machine control, ERDC’s work is driving a new era of secure, on-demand production in support of national defense.

Whether on an aircraft carrier or forward operating base, the ability to design and produce mission-essential components at the point of need is no longer a future vision — it’s becoming a reality.

Learn how ERDC is engineering the future of manufacturing, one breakthrough at a time.
