Gain industry insights and news from global experts.
Additive Manufacturing (AM) creates a new world of manufacturing opportunities, and people are the driving force for adoption. With a myriad of different types of face to face AM events available (e.g. conferences, seminars, training), these questions are very relevant as industry seeks the knowledge to advance AM adoption:
What event(s) should I attend to gain the knowledge I need to adopt AM?
How important is the training format for retaining and applying knowledge?
The Barnes Global Advisors (TBGA), headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, has signed an agreement with the US Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Health Administration Innovation Ecosystem (VHAIE) to provide a framework for collaboration intended to facilitate regulatory and basic science innovation using Additive Manufacturing technologies to respond to coronavirus (COVID-19).
Read MoreHistory shows that innovative thinking attracts more innovative thinking with “innovation sectors” clustering and growing due to knowledge-based economies. The quality of a company’s workers is key, but success is also driven by the entire ecosystem that surrounds it.
Neighborhood 91, an Additive Manufacturing (AM) production campus at Pittsburgh International Airport, will act as a catalyst for AM industrialization and innovation with the creation of a cost-efficient ecosystem and the collection of smart people. The economic impact of this campus will be big and built on the success of individual companies. To spur economic impact with the adoption of advanced manufacturing, we must address a specific problem for the manufacturer.
Read MoreAdditive manufacturing (AM, aka 3D printing) is increasingly accepted as an end-product manufacturing method, rather than just for prototyping. However, ensuring the final quality of parts for use in critical applications such as medical, and particularly aerospace, can still be a labor- and cost-intensive process. AM machine makers have most recently been concentrating on improving the actual printing technology of their equipment, and monitoring build progress in situ, so that printed parts not only perform as expected, but also can meet the various standards set by different industries.
