The primary objective of this workshop award is to define and focus research activity in the area of additive manufacturing to accelerate its commercial acceptance, to increase the impact and significance of research, and to articulate a roadmap for research for the next 10-12 years. The roadmap workshop will be held in Arlington, Virginia at the National Science Foundation in March or April, 2009. About fifty leading experts will convene to identify major areas for societal and market penetration as well as areas of fruitful research. Specific research questions deal with appropriate targets for additive manufacturing; technical, operating and analysis advances; affordability milestones; the role of nanotechnology; consideration of energy, power generation and waste heat recovery; bioengineering, medical device, and healthcare; and sustainability. The agenda for the meeting will include four keynote presentations and seven breakouts for simultaneous assessment. A final report based on the results of the workshop will be prepared and broadly distributed to maximize the impact of the effort.Major outcomes of the study will be creation and increased awareness of high-impact research topics in manufacturing; an estimated time-line for technical progress in processes, machines, and materials; a research agenda and partnership opportunities among funding agencies, academics, and industrialists; and synergism of novel concepts for transformational activities in the application and extension of freeform technologies. Increased awareness in the research community of high-impact research areas will increase interest in manufacturing research in general and freeform manufacturing specifically. Technological developments including new industries and applications of technology are anticipated. An understanding should emerge of the potential for additive manufacturing to impact critical areas of energy, sustainability, industrial competitiveness, and national security.

该研讨会的主要目标是定义和关注增材制造领域的研究活动，以加速其商业接受，增加研究的影响和意义，并阐明未来10-12年的研究路线图。 路线图研讨会将于2009年3月或4月在弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿的国家科学基金会举行。 大约五十位顶尖专家将召开会议，确定社会和市场渗透的主要领域以及富有成果的研究领域。 具体的研究问题涉及增材制造的适当目标;技术，操作和分析进展;可负担性里程碑;纳米技术的作用;能源，发电和废热回收的考虑;生物工程，医疗器械和医疗保健;和可持续性。 会议议程将包括四次主旨发言和七次分组讨论，以便同时进行评估。 将根据讲习班的结果编写一份最后报告并广泛分发，以最大限度地扩大这项工作的影响，研究的主要成果将是创造和提高对制造业中具有重大影响的研究课题的认识;工艺、机器和材料方面技术进步的估计时间表;研究议程和供资机构、学术界和工业界之间的伙伴关系机会;以及在自由形态技术的应用和推广中转化活动的新概念的协同作用。 研究界对高影响力研究领域的认识提高，将增加对制造研究的兴趣，特别是自由成形制造。 技术发展，包括新的工业和技术应用的预期。 人们应该认识到增材制造对能源、可持续性、工业竞争力和国家安全等关键领域产生影响的潜力。
