China and our competitors spend billions propping up state-owned enterprises and investing in research and development, monetizing our ideas, and using them to compete against American businesses, while paying their workers less and giving them fewer rights.
I want the technologies that will drive the next generation of manufacturing – from semiconductors to hydrogen buses to the next generation jet engine – to be developed in Ohio, and built by Ohioans.
Back in 2014, I worked together with Republican Senator Roy Blunt of Missouri and the Obama Administration to pass the Revitalize American Manufacturing and Innovation Act.

China and our competitors spend billions propping up state-owned enterprises and investing in research and development, monetizing our ideas, and using them to compete against American businesses, while paying their workers less and giving them fewer rights. I want the technologies that will drive the next generation of manufacturing – from semiconductors to hydrogen buses to the next generation jet engine – to be developed in Ohio, and built by Ohioans.
Back in 2014, I worked together with Republican Senator Roy Blunt of Missouri and the Obama Administration to pass the Revitalize American Manufacturing and Innovation Act.
That landmark bill created a national network of advanced manufacturing hubs, and was one of the biggest steps we’d taken as a country in a long time to make our manufacturing industry more competitive. America Makes in Youngstown started as a pilot program in 2012, and became the first hub in that network.

On April 28 ExOne Co. (North Huntington, Pa., U.S.), a binder jet 3D printing technology company announced it has acquired the assets of Freshmade 3D (Youngstown), an Ohio-based startup with a patented method of creating durable AMClad tooling out of sand forms 3D-printed on ExOne machines for a wide range of composite tooling applications. The strategic move will strengthen ExOne’s position as a provider of large-format 3D-printed (also known as LFAM) tooling for industrial applications.
AMClad tooling, which is 3D printed in low-cost sand on ExOne systems and then infiltrated and coated using Freshmade 3D’s patented method, is said to eliminate weeks or months of time spent waiting for conventional tooling. What’s more, Freshmade 3D says, it typically offers a 30-50% cost savings.
