ATI exhibited at the SAE World Congress in Detroit in April. At the show, ATI placed emphasis on materials and processes that deliver functional parts that can withstand real-world testing and more closely approximate production parts. A group of students from the Rensselaer (RPI) Formula SAE Team joined ATI at the show and, as you can see, they brought their race car. ATI assisted RPI by making many functional prototype parts for their race car. ATI continues to add newer, stronger and more versatile materials to its line-up. ATI has techniques that enable us to reinforce prototype parts to give added strength and durability. These new capabilities also enable ATI to support low volume rapid manufacturing requirements using Selective Laser Sintering, Stereolithography and RTV Molding.

ATI also exhibited its Target 200 process that delivers die-cast representative parts, in spec alloys (380 AL, 390 AL, etc.), with delivery in 3 to 5 weeks and at a fraction of the cost required for production tools.
