Manage episode 363855932 series 3477611
From October 12-14, additive manufacturing (AM) professionals and those interested in adopting this technology gathered at the Additive Manufacturing Conference + Expo held this year in Cincinnati, Ohio. Attendance was lower than typical for this event, but the quality of the program speakers, exhibitors and attendees shone through. During a day and a half of sessions, speakers covered everything from 3D printed tooling to reshoring manufacturing to how teams of people — not just technology — need to change for successful AM adoption. Peter Zelinski, Julia Hider and Stephanie Hendrixson discuss the themes and ideas that emerged.
