Achievements
Achievements and successes of the Navy ManTech program are numerous and varied.
Navy Manufacturing Technology
Managed within the Office of Naval Research (ONR), the Navy ManTech Program provides for the development of enabling manufacturing technology and the transition of this technology for the production and sustainment of Navy weapon systems to support the Fleet.
Combating Coronavirus: Navy Provides Protective Gear to First Responders
To equip those on the front lines of coronavirus response, the Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC) Division Keyport—in partnership with the U.S. Navy’s Tech Bridge program—manufactured over 500 face shields and personal protection equipment for first responders at two hospitals and naval commands in the state of Washington.
Coronavirus Defense: Navy Develops 3D-Printed Tactical Masks for U.S. Forces Korea
The Office of Naval Research (ONR) Global TechSolutions is working with multiple partners to develop prototypes of 3D-printable (also called additive manufactured) masks for use at Camp Humphreys in South Korea.
Down Under Demo: ONR Touts Additive Manufacturing Tech at Australian Event
The Office of Naval Research (ONR) — and its international arm, ONR Global — participated in the recent Autonomous Warrior 2023 (AW23) exercise, located at HMAS Creswell in Jervis Bay, Australia.
Navy Strengthens Defense Industrial Base with New Small Business Funding Opportunity
The Department of the Navy's agile Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs announced today $30 million in rapid-funding opportunities through a new Broad Agency Announcement, which is a request for scientific or research proposals, through May 28.
Metamaterials
The Office of Naval Research's Metamaterials program supports basic research on optical and acoustic metamaterials to control light and sound propagation over a large frequency range.
Biofouling Control and Coatings
Naval assets, large and small, spend months to years at sea exposed to considerable biofouling pressures. The Office of Naval Research's Biofouling Control and Coatings Program sponsors research to develop antifouling/fouling release coatings and the mechanics underlying such materials.
Computer-Aided Materials Design (CAMD)
The Office of Naval Research's Computer-Aided Materials Design (CAMD) program funds research projects in materials design.
Materials & Processes for Additive Manufacturing
The Office of Naval Research's Materials & Processes for Additive Manufacturing (AM) program is focused on exploring new and novel approaches in developing and understanding AM materials and manufacturing processes for naval applications.
