Additive Manufacturing Workshop

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a fast-growing domain for production of mainly small series of complex components or prototypes in the medical, automotive and aerospace sectors. Characterization is crucial to both the starting material and final product, in order to produce components that will perform for their intended application.

Join us on Wednesday, 17 April 2024 from 08h00 to 15h30 where we will showcase the Anton Paar's characterization solutions for additive manufacturing.

This workshop is an in-person event. For attendees they are welcome to bring one sample per company for FREE analysis (testing will be done after the event).
