PANEL 1 - Additive Manufacturing Trends to Watch in Aerospace

Read more

Additive Manufacturing processes in the aerospace sector can overcome some major industrial challenges including the design of complex parts by reducing production steps and structural weight.

This roundtable will try to answer questions on: what volume of production for which products? In which sector? In what time frame?

PANEL 2 - OUTLOOK OF POLYMER ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING IN AEROSPACE

Read more

Photopolymer and polymer powders hold a monopolistic position in the constantly expanding market of manufacturing processes and materials. Continuous growth is expected in the coming years.

The aerospace sector should become one of its main users for tooling or prototyping applications.

PANEL 3 - HYBRID 3D PRINTING AND FACTORY 4.0: SYNERGIES BETWEEN ADDITIVE AND SUBTRACTIVE MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGIES

Read more

A hybrid system combines additive and subtractive manufacturing processes in a single machine. The benefits are those of machining: repeatability, precision, surface finishing, productivity, and those of additive manufacturing: material waste reduction, design freedom, unmatched manufacturing.

How does this new type of hybridization enhance competitiveness in the factory 4.0?
