IALR Center for Manufacturing Advancement

The Institute for Advanced Learning and Research serves as a regional catalyst for economic transformation.  The mission will be accomplished through applied research, advanced learning, economic development, advanced manufacturing, and conference services.  Working with an Architectural and multi-disciplined Engineering team lead by Dewberry in Danville, VA, Master Engineers designed the Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing systems of a new 51,000 square foot facility.  The new building will house five high-bay spaces for advanced machining and process optimization fit-out by future tenants.  In addition, the building houses a non-destructive testing laboratory, an ISO-certified Metrology laboratory, and an Industry 4.0 demonstration area.
