euspen meeting to address factors influencing uptake of AM for production
The European Society for Precision Engineering and Nanotechnology (euspen) will host a Special Interest Group (SIG) Meeting at the Ecole Centrale de Nantes, France, from September 16–18, 2019, in cooperation with the American Society of Precision Engineering (ASPE). The meeting will look to address factors influencing the uptake of Additive Manufacturing as a production technology, and examine both barriers to adoption and the opportunities currently available for AM.
The meeting will focus on issues critical to the viability of AM as a production technology, such as the development of superior control software and user/machine interfaces; quality control via digital simulation in-process; validation; improved, qualified materials; and extended automation pre- and post-build.
The local hosts and organising committee are Prof Alain Bernard, Ecole Centrale de Nantes; Dr David Bue Pedersen, Technical University of Denmark; Prof Richard Leac (Meeting Chair), University of Nottingham, UK; and Dr John Taylor (Meeting Chair), University of North Carolina at Charlotte, USA.
Delegate registration opens June 22, 2019. Further information is available via the SIG Meeting website, or by contacting Dishi Phillips, Business Development Manager, euspen ([email protected]).
