This crab mold is an example of RSP Tooling (CPS 1790) technology capabilities. RSP Tooling is an active R&D project in the Materials portfolio.
The Industrial Technologies Program (ITP) provides cost-shared funding to selected R&D projects that address industry-defined priorities as well as national goals for energy and the environment. Projects focus on potentially high-payoff technologies that are too risky or costly to attract adequate private funding.
The Industrial Materials for the Future R&D portfolio contains 6 active projects, and 55 completed projects.
