In this joint session, Stefan Emeder (STIWA Group) and Dominik Sippel (EOS) showcase how STIWA seamlessly integrates polymer and metal 3D printing into daily production — from workpiece carriers and grippers to components for linear axes and vibratory feeders. Through tangible case studies, they demonstrate how Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM), simulation, and smart material choices lead to lighter, smarter, and more resilient tooling solutions.
Attendees will gain exclusive insights into STIWA’s decision-making process for choosing between polymer and metal AM, its validation workflows for production-ready parts, and the company’s approach to scaling “Additive as a Service.”
This session offers a behind-the-scenes look at STIWA’s AM journey — where engineering excellence meets EOS technology — providing practical takeaways and inspiration for manufacturers aiming to boost flexibility and performance on the factory floor.
