Int Conf AM Nottingham line-up
The International Conference on Additive Manufacturing line-up.
The International Conference on Additive Manufacturing has announced the full line-up for its 12th edition set to take place in July 2017 in Nottingham, UK.
This year’s conference will feature 19 speakers from academia, research and industry. They will share their insights, expertise, developments and case studies across two days, July 12th and July 13th, at the Nottingham Belfry.
Topics range from creating an AM-capable workforce in the UK and the Gartner hype cycle to nano-particle jetting technology, mass-produced customised hearing aids, AM innovations in semiconductors and aerospace and design-led manufacturing to the ever-expanding AM applications in metals - for everything from Chris Froome’s Tour de France winning handlebars to parts of the International Space Station.

“Our conference prides itself on including a mix of speakers from research and industry roles to illustrate not only the current applications of AM technology, but to provide a platform for experts to share inroads they are making to improve the technology and expand its future uses for everyday life,” said Professor Richard Hague, Conference Chair. “We are very excited about this year’s speakers that hail from renowned research institutions, start-ups and emerging companies to established industry players and well-known brands. As always, we steer clear of the hype around 3DP and focus on the realities at every phase of technology development.”
This year, the two-day conference will be proceeded by a pre-conference event, which will be held on July 11th with Innovate UK’s Knowledge Transfer Network. A full list of speakers for the Industrial Realities day can be found here.
