The day provided a range of opportunities for debate and knowledge exchange, with the aim for participants to share experiences and problems, whilst beginning to find routes to possible solutions. Specific deep dives were taken into polymer and metal technologies, as well as the eco-systems that support the use of AM such as supply chain, repeatability, skills and sustainability, with attendees discussing both individual problems and the broader issues additive faces.   

A full and detailed report from the day highlighting the key findings is now available to download for free.

Industry stakeholders and enthusiasts are encouraged to explore the detailed findings and contribute to the ongoing dialogue about the future of additive manufacturing.
