4. Continuous Manufacturing to Revolutionize Pharmaceutical Industry

A technique called continuous manufacturing is being developed at Rutgers University.

It will also allow them to provide higher quality goods at (potentially) much lower costs.

5. Revolutionizing the Manufacturing Industry Particle by Particle

Open Manufacturing is investigating technologies that could be applied not just to additive manufacturing (e.g. laser printing, 3D printing, etc.) but also to a range of potentially new manufacturing methodologies. The focus is on metal additive processes and on bonded composite structures.
