3D Printing Metal at Room Temperature
Ultrasonic Additive Manufacturing (UAM), a rather new 3D printing technology, uses ultrasonic energy to produce metallurgical bonds between layers of metal foils. This session covers recent advancements in 3D printing of metals and how this has enabled one hundred percent dense metal parts to be produced at room temperature.

Can OEM's Replace Machined Components with Additive Manufacturing?
The steps to convert a part or an assembly from a machined metal part to a plastic part requires the use of advanced design tools and methodology to guarantee performance, increase functionality and make it a more attractive alternative to the conventional machined part. The presenter will share with you a number of inspiring applications and case studies that will help you see a practical use of the technology in your day to day design work.

From Prototype to Production, How Will Desktop 3D Printers Be Used in 2017?
Traditionally, designing components for the industry with the help of 3D printers meant investing vast sums of money for prototypes that rarely offered any scope for modification. With desktop 3D printers reaching performance benchmarks of industrial 3D printers in quality, reliability and accuracy, the landscape of installed 3D printers is changing rapidly. We'll take a look at what's happened in 3D printing this year and see where we are headed next year, as desktop 3D printers enable a wide variety of use cases and areas, from manufacturing, to fabrication, to design.
