IML is happy to share that Zheng secured his first funding (also as a PI). IML will be diving deep into the world of 3D printed smart tags alongside Professor Xiao Zhang and Professor Jing Tang to push the boundaries of smart manufacturing.
At the 2026 AIAA SciTech conference, Zheng presented Support-Free Additive Manufacturing via Multi-Axis Digital Light Processing, introducing a robotic, multi-axis DLP 3D-printing framework aimed at eliminating sacrificial supports for complex geometries.
Zheng is incredibly grateful to our outstanding invited speakers for making our 2025 INFORMS session “AI/ML for Complex Engineering Systems” (invited sub-session under Quality, Statistics & Reliability track) such a resounding success!
The Intelligent Manufacturing Lab (IML) at the University of Michigan-Dearborn is an innovative research space dedicated to advancing AI-driven engineering solutions. Our lab brings together students and faculty to tackle complex challenges at the intersection of artificial intelligence, manufacturing, and energy systems.
