June 28: 2nd ASTM AM CoE Specialty Workshop

At 9 am EST on Tuesday the 28th, ASTM International’s Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence (AM CoE), in conjunction with NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center and America Makes, will host its second specialty workshop. Held at the Embassy Suites by Hilton in Huntsville, AL, the focus will be on “In-Situ Technology Readiness for Applications in AM Qualification and Certification.” 11 speakers will discuss such topics as standardization gaps, key challenges, and R&D needs, approaches to AM qualification using in-situ methods as a QA tool in critical applications, and more. One outcome will be a roadmap that captures input from several sectors to determine and prioritize challenges, potential future solutions, and action items to follow.

“This workshop will focus on assessment of high-maturity technologies relevant to the application of in-situ monitoring in AM qualification and certification. Fundamental studies or commercial aspects of in-situ technologies will not be covered.”

June 28: Sinterit’s Lisa X for Engineers

Sinterit is holding a webinar on the 28th as well, at 10 am EST, focused on “Why is the Lisa X 3D printer perfect for engineers?” Two of the company’s SLS technology experts, Radek Antosz and Dominik Stasiak, will be joined by Valentin Holz from BASF Forward AM to host the session about how Sinterit’s Lisa X can help improve everyday engineering work. They will discuss specific requirements for SLS 3D printed parts, how the Lisa X works and how it can benefit engineers, and more.

“If you are an industrial engineer you probably use rapid prototyping to refine your designs quickly and meet tight deadlines. You have also specific requirements for the prototyped parts, for example, complex structures, performance flexibility, or smoothness. All those needs may be covered with the SLS 3D printing technology.”
