Panel - Sustainability Greener Inputs > Greener Outputs

21 Nov 2024

Talk of sustainability is everywhere in AM — action is sometimes harder to pin down. In this panel, we hear from AMGTA, FH Aachen University of Applied Sciences, Research Institutes of Sweden, and DIMECC Oy to explore how AM can be a powerful driver of sustainable practices. Discussions will focus on the environmental benefits of additive design, how advanced technologies are reshaping production for greener outcomes, and insights into adopting circular business models and product longevity. Panelists will share their expertise on how AM not only supports more eco-friendly processes but also leads the way in reducing waste and energy consumption. Join us to learn how the AM industry is shaping a more sustainable future.
