Additive Manufacturing Conference + Expo Held in Cincinnati October 25, 2021 The Additive Manufacturing Conference + Expo (AMCE) 2021 was held Oct. 12-14 in Cincinnati. The three-day event offered attendees ways to connect with leading suppliers, end-users and researchers of industrial applications for additive manufacturing technologies.
Design Keys: Parts, Not Prints May 31, 2023 Traditional manufacturing principles stress designing for the process. For AM, however, design must encompass the entire process, starting with materials and printing but also consider thermal treatment, machining, chemical post-processing, volumetric and dimensional inspection, and mechanical testing.
3 Trends Toward Mainstream Applications May 18, 2023 The macroeconomic outlook has also taken a toll on the additive manufacturing (AM) industry, with adoption not living up to expectations. This is reflected in the slumping stock prices of publicly traded 3D-printing companies.
Additive Electronics: Next-Gen Semiconductor Packaging June 9, 2023 Ultimately, the best way to improve semiconductor packaging may be to eliminate the traditional package altogether.
Innovating Sustainability with Generative Design June 14, 2023 Generative design combines algorithms with specifications to provide a new level of automation for product design.
How AM Can Help Mitigate Supply Chain Insecurities May 30, 2023 The question is, how can manufacturers mitigate issues related to problems with carbon footprint, supply chains, and labor shortages? Additive manufacturing may be the answer; it has the potential to overcome many of these difficulties.
