The MARMC Technology and Innovation Lab is a

10,000 square foot facility located in Naval Base Nor-

folk, VA. It was developed in 2015 as a result of the

DARPA MENTOR-2 program. It is manned by sailors

and civilian personnel from MARMC Code 205C and

utilizes Additive Manufacturing and CNC technologies

to support the MARMC mission.

Successes:

“Hydra Clip”, USS HARRY S TRUMAN

“GT Pliers”, MARMC Main Propulsion and Electrical Division

“Toggle Switch Guards”, MARMC C4I Systems Division

Mission:

MARMC's Technology and Innovation Lab is a rapidprototyping and teaching lab that is focused on usingnew technology to provide the Navy with expeditedsolutions to problems, both docked and away. Ourmission is to provide support to MARMC personnelin the creation of new designs, reverse engineeringof parts, and instruction on 3D CAD, Additive Manu-facturing, CNC mills, and Laser Cutting.

Activities:

Weekly classes for DOD personnel

Jobs submitted to Lab for prototyping/small scaleproduction

Demonstrations of 3D Printing, Laser Cutting, andCNC Technology

Challenges:

Material Constrains: We currently only print with ABS,PLA, CPE, and Nylon

Scanning of parts with internal geometries/components
