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.
The new Wohlers Associates report “Post-Processing of AM and 3D-Printed Parts” provides a broad range of methods and techniques for finishing parts made by additive manufacturing, also referred to as 3D printing.
Why don’t more manufacturers in the United States use smart manufacturing technologies like AI and machine learning to reduce waste, achieve predictive maintenance and enhance their automation systems? Five CESMII roundtable panelists share their insights.
As automotive OEMs turn their attention toward EV development, the inherent capabilities of the AM process make it a natural fit to support EV production—and now is the time for the automotive industry to make that pivot.
The thermodynamics of the extruder head, or “ThermoTag puts, a stamp undetectable to the naked eye on the physical properties of 3D printed parts. If proven and accepted through additional research, the phenomenon has implications for thwarting counterfeiting of parts and products, protecting intellectual property (IP) and tracing illegal manufacturing of weapons.
