Distinguished Professor Milan Brandt is the Technical Director of the Digital Manufacturing Facility and Director of the Centre for Additive Manufacturing, RMIT University. Prof. Brandt is the lead Australian researcher in macro machining and additive manufacturing with lasers and has conducted work over the last 37 years in laser cladding, cutting, drilling, welding, and more recently additive manufacturing. This has resulted in technological advancements, patents, research papers and commercial products, which have been recognized nationally and internationally in both scientific and industrial circles. Prof. Brandt is a Fellow of the Laser Institute of America, Honorary Fellow of Weld Australia, Professorial Fellow of the Department of Medicine, Melbourne University and Adjunct Prof. at the University of Waterloo, Canada. In 2018 he was the president of the Laser Institute of America, the largest international association of researchers and industry involved with lasers and laser additive technology and in 2019 he was named the Engineers Australia Centenary Hero for his research which led to Australia's first locally manufactured 3D printed spinal implant that was implanted into a patient.
