MfgTech Roadmap - Future Industries
In the future, how will things be made? The roadmaps listed below seek to identify challenges in creating innovative computing power, developing a sustainable food supply, and creating new parts in zero-gravity. They will also lay the groundwork for future manufacturing that can take full advantage of new positioning sensors, higher computing powers, larger data storage, ultra-secure communications, supplemental food sources, and our interest in exploring space.

Accomplishments:
- Convened 63 attendees across multiple stakeholders, including industry, academia, and the national labs, to develop a roadmap to address superconducting technologies as a pathway to next-generation electric machines.
- Addressed goals, challenges, and priority R&D needs for clean emissions in three sectors: 1) electric aviation, 2) fusion energy reactors, and 3) next-generation electric grid (cables and wind generators).
- Identified cross-cutting technologies that are needed to advance clean emissions.
