3D-Action's seminars on additive manufacturing

This workshop demonstrated how Volvo Cars Torslanda leverages additive manufacturing to add value in production.

This seminar explored how additive manufacturing unlocks new opportunities in design and product development, offering an introduction to designing, printing, and ordering printed components. You can watch the recording here (in Swedish).

This seminar explored the use of 3D printing for repairs and maintenance in production. Regional companies presented examples from their operations, while experts from RISE shared their experiences. The day included a tour of the Production for Future demo factory. Parts of the seminar were recorded. You can watch the recording here (in Swedish).

This day at ASSAR Industrial Innovation Arena provided the opportunity to attend inspiring lectures, participate in workshops, and meet experts in 3D printing and additive manufacturing.

Additive manufacturing opens up entirely new possibilities for design and product development. However, for optimal results, the design must be adapted to the manufacturing method. That was the theme of 3D-Action’s third seminar offering insights into successful additive manufacturing.

At this event, the focus was on how additive manufacturing can give your company competitive advantages and contribute to increased profitability. University lecturer Henrik Barth talked about "business models for additive manufacturing". Robert Turesson at CEJN talked about shorter lead times and more efficient production, and Lars-Ola Normark at GKN Aerospace Engine Systems talked about new business opportunities with additive manufacturing. The day ended with a workshop. The venue of the day was the ASSAR Industrial Innovation Arena in Skövde.

At the first seminar, the aim was to provide better knowledge and understanding of the different additive manufacturing techniques for both metallic and polymeric materials. Lars Nyborg from Chalmers talked about the advantages and possibilities of Powder Bed Fusion, Anders Snis, GE Arcam EBM, talked about the advantages and possibilities of Electron Beam Melting, EBM. Jan Johansson from RISE talked about large-scale material extrusion (FDM). The venue of the day was RISE in Mölndal, and the participants also got a tour of the Application Center for Additive Manufacturing.
