Together with our friends and members of the network, we have spent two beautiful days celebrating the past achievements and listened to inspiring key notes about what else the great AM
technology is capable of.

Now it’s time for us to look back at those eventful days and to say thank you!

The Railway Forum 2021 – what an event!

Posted on by Ingo Schepers
On September 7 & 8 the leading conference of the railway industry with exhibition finally opened its on-site and virtual doors and we were happy to be part of the on-site exhibition with our MGA booth. It was amazing to see not only some of our members, like the DB, SKF and Chromatic, but also to share our passion about 3D printing and the advantages it can provide with the rail community. The varied and exciting program of the Railway Forum offered something for everyone, and we were able to participate in many interesting and educative discussions and presentations. The topic of sustainability was particularly in focus here and visions of alternative drives, such as the hydrogen train, were presented. Likewise, the digitalization & automatization of the industry was a large component of the content. DB Cargo underlined the importance of rail in terms of CO2 neutral transport and presented it as a sustainable model for the future. Having lunch in between presentations, we were able to meet new experts and exchange ideas with each other. At the evening award ceremony of the 3D printing competition of Deutsche Bahn, the creative winners of the different categories were awarded and honored, which left many exciting impressions. It was a great experience and we cannot wait for the next conference with IPM: The AM Medical Days on November 22 & 23 in Berlin. Check out the event now!

ADDITIV Automotive, die virtuelle Veranstaltung rund um die additive Fertigung in der Automobilindustrie

Posted on by Ingo Schepers

3Dnatives, die Online-Medienplattform zum Thema 3D-Druck, veranstaltet am 28. September 2021 von 08:00 Uhr bis 17:00 Uhr das kostenlose virtuelle Event ADDITIV Automotive. Die Teilnehmer erwarten spannende Podiumsdiskussionen, Workshops und Networking-Sessions! Ralf Anderhofstadt (Daimler), Stefanus Stahl (BMW), Elena López (Fraunhofer IWS / Women in 3D Printing), Volker Eitrich (Audi), Thomas Stein (Volkswagen), Ole Geisen (Siemens Energy), Jens Hübner (HP), Jérémie Schuler (Formlabs) und Stéphane CAULIEZ (KIMYA by Armor) zählen zu den Experten und werden bei ADDITIV Automotive spannende Einblicke in die Anwendungsmöglichkeiten des 3D-Drucks für die Automobilindustrie geben.

 

Die additive Fertigung stellt eine treibende Schlüsselkraft für die Industrie 4.0 dar und wird von Automobilherstellern als wegweisende Technologie zur Automatisierung und Optimierung von Produktionsschritten entlang der gesamten Wertschöpfungskette genutzt. Die Automobilindustrie profitiert von den Vorteilen des  3D-Drucks beispielsweise im Hinblick auf eine Steigerung der Flexibilität, Effizienz und Wirtschaftlichkeit. Es bieten sich in puncto Design nie dagewesene Chancen zur Konstruktion von leichten Bauteilen mit komplexen Geometrien. Außerdem können Werkzeuge, Hilfsmittel und Ersatzteile schneller, kostengünstiger und vor Ort 3D-gedruckt werden. Gründe, weshalb sich Experten bereits heute einig sind, dass die additive Fertigung signifikant zur Dezentralisierung und Individualisierung in der Produktion beitragen wird.

 

Khelifa Touati, Business Developer für die DACH Region bei 3Dnatives sagt im Gespräch: „In den letzten Jahren hat sich gezeigt, dass sich die Einsatzgebiete des 3D-Drucks innerhalb des Automotive Zweiges kontinuierlich weiterentwickeln und vergrößern. Deutsche Automobilhersteller stellen sich vermehrt auf einen Paradigmenwechsel ein, welcher nicht zuletzt von 3D-Druck-Verfahren mitbestimmt wird. Ich bin davon überzeugt, dass Teilnehmer bei ADDITIV Automotive einen spannenden Austausch in den Podiumsdiskussionen erwarten können und freue mich Sprecher von branchenführenden Unternehmen aus der Industrie sowie 3D-Druck-Unternehmen begrüßen zu dürfen.“

Working Group Hospitals welcomes Jonathan Morris

Posted on by Ingo Schepers

When talking about implementing AM technologies in the medical sector, hospitals are one of the biggest and most important players. That is why we established a working group exclusively for employees in hospitals like physicians, nurses, technicians and the administrations – with an option to later open the group for suppliers and consultants.
Hospitals is also aimed at different medical fields to bring them closer together via the common interface AM.
In January 2021 at the first Hospitals meeting, we welcomed 34 participants from 6 nations. Since then members of this working group are engaged in discussions on quality management, change management and the general AM requirements and needs hospitals have.

At the next meeting on October 13 at 4.30 pm we are now opening our doors to everyone interested in the topic of AM in Hospitals and are happy to welcome one of the pioneers of this field as a speaker: Jonathan Morris (Medical Director – Anatomic Modeling Lab, Department of Radiology, Mayo Clinic) has more than 20 years of experience in the field of medical AM and is one of the leading experts in in house printing who has successfully established clinical 3D printing services at Mayo Clinic. His expertise is in the use of point of care 3D printing/additive manufacturing for preoperative planning and custom surgical guides. Additionally, Dr. Morris is focused on the development and deployment of extended realities, VR/AR in medical education, intraoperative guidance, and medical capital equipment training. Clinically, he focuses on minimally invasive thermal ablation of tumors in the neuroaxis.
Dr. Morris will be talking about “Point of Care Manufacturing: Looking at the Big Picture” at the virtual meeting in October and the working group under the lead of Dr. Cora Lüders-Theuerkauf would like to invite you to participate in the following discussion on Change Management.
