Fraunhofer IGCV to host first multi-material PBF symposium
Fraunhofer Research Institute for Casting, Composite and Processing Technology (IGCV), Augsburg, Germany, has announced the inaugural Symposium on Multi-Material Powder Bed Fusion. The event will take place on September 4, 2025, in Augsburg.
The event was developed on the basis of Fraunhofer IGCV’s eleven years of research and development work on the multi-material processing of metals using Laser Beam Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB). With industry adoption growing and machines and components now commercially available, Fraunhofer IGCV has launched the symposium as a dedicated platform for industry and research focused on PBF-LB Additive Manufacturing.
The Symposium on Multi-Material Powder Bed Fusion will feature presentations on the latest findings, challenges and achievements in multi-material processing from both industry and research. The symposium will also offer space for networking, including a pre-event barbecue reception on Fraunhofer IGCV’s rooftop.
Those interested in attending can register here.
