SME’s Additive Manufacturing Materials seminar will take place in Knoxville on Thursday, August 9. This seminar will focus on how major companies have transformed their operations by embracing Additive Manufacturing/3D printing. At the event, industry experts from Lockheed Martin, GE Additive, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Ohio State University and others, will be on hand to discuss how they are implementing the technology and present various case studies and novel practices facilitated through additive manufacturing. Hear how the materials used in additive manufacturing are ever changing and how polymers, metals and advanced composites are utilized in a variety of additive manufacturing technologies. Learn about processing parameters, typical defects you find in metals, aluminum, super alloys and many things in between.
Get direct access to AM/3DP technology and expert advice
- Hear first-hand what is working today and will work in the future
- Make new connections and build relationships with partners and peers
- Experience a dynamic mix of learning and hands-on demonstrations from industry sponsors exhibiting their capabilities
Attendees will have the opportunity to meet some of the event sponsors, network with manufacturing peers and industry leaders, and learn about some of the latest techniques and academic research, along with the parts that have been made to support some of the next generation 3D printing techniques and products.
