The CANMET lab at the McMaster Innovation Park is hosting an open house for University staff and faculty May 8, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
The new facility is Canada's principal research and development laboratory for metals and materials research in the areas of automotive applications, clean energy and infrastructure.
Please RSVP to Jennifer Bondy, (905) 645-0702.
The 145,000 square-foot complex includes facilities for casting, rolling and forming metal, and designing and testing new materials.
CANMET-MTL’s research focuses on three industrial sectors: transportation, energy and metal manufacturing. It also studies other aspects of sustainable development, such as achieving process efficiencies and the recycling of materials.
CANMET-MTL has expertise and facilities for the pilot-scale production and performance assessment of novel materials. It houses unique facilities for handling hot and molten metal in pilot-scale quantities in its experimental casting and metal-forming laboratories. It also characterizes the microstructure and assesses the mechanical, corrosion, thermal and electrochemical performance of innovative materials.
