In some cases, it makes sense to switch from 3D printing to some other process, but there are also cases where AM can and should win the production work. Here are 5 examples. 

And as AM continues to advance, the differences are becoming more pronounced and more important. 

Possibilities that were speculative a few years ago are coming true today. Applications of metal matrix composite provide an example. Recent articles explore the ongoing advance of 3D printed materials.

Company says 3D printing in-situ inspection system detects defects in real-time, enabling users to fully monitor additive manufacturing operations for both laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) and binder jetting processes.

Why do these strategies matter in design for additive manufacturing (DFAM), and what’s the difference? A conversation with PADT’s Eric Miller explores AM and design, including its human element.

What is it about 3D printing that makes it such a common choice for startup companies? Are these businesses driving additive manufacturing forward, or are they being driven? Peter Zelinski, Stephanie Hendrixson and Julia Hider discuss.

Penn State’s Center for Innovative Materials Processing through Direct Digital Deposition is an interdisciplinary research center that works to advance additive manufacturing and materials research.

Additive manufacturing offers powerful capabilities alone, but even more opportunities are opened when AM is combined with subtractive processes.

Formnext Forum: Austin, a two-day event at the end of August focused on additive manufacturing for production, includes a conference exploring important ideas in AM related to supply chains, bridge production, enterprise transformation and more.

A framework developed by The Barnes Global Advisors illustrates considerations and steps for qualifying additively manufactured parts, using an example familiar to those in AM: the 3D printed bottle opener.
