EDUCATION AND KNOWLEDGE FOR EVERYONE

As befits a cutting edge exhibition, TCT Live understands the need to ensure the possibilities and applications that can be achieved by adopting the technologies are readily apparent to all. The two days are jam-packed with conference and seminar programmes designed to educate the full range of visitors, from the beginners needing an introduction to prototyping technologies to the most advanced users of Additive Manufacturing.All seats at these conference sessions or seminars must be pre-booked, this process is embedded in the visitor registration process which can be accessed by clicking the red button to the right.

EUROPE’S LEADING ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING CONFERENCE

The globally recognised Additive Manufacturing Conference returns with two-days of industry focussed papers looking in-depth at the use of the Additive Layer Manufacturing in the Transport, Jewellery, and Medical/Dental arenas. Day 1 will also incorporate an overview of the ALM Landscape and New Breakthroughs in ALM.

More than ever before, designers, product developers and manufacturers are looking to source cutting-edge techniques and gain expert knowledge to help them stay ahead of the competition. Therefore in 2009 we took the unprecedented step of removing any financial barriers giving full accessibility for all visitors to the world’s leading experts in Additive Manufacture. This underlines our complete commitment to the development of the rapid product development and additive manufacturing industry. The 2010 programme is shown below.

In addition further sessions will focus on Inspection and Metrology and the latest developments and breakthroughs in rapid prototyping technologies. There will also be a return of the highly popular introduction to additive technologies sessions. This year also sees an essential new track for anyone looking to purchase 3D printing or additive manufacturing machines. Here all major vendors will be invited to present their latest developments in short sharp presentations, which will give the buyer an instant snapshot of what is hot and imminent from each of the major players.
