Additive manufacturing (AM) is generally considered as one of the most resource-efficient manufacturing technologies, allowing for the production of complex-shape multi-functional components thanks to the near-net shape manufacturing. Despite the vast possibilities, industrial implementation of AM is today rather limited due to the low maturity and poor accessibility of the technology. Hence, it is of highest importance that we can provide our future engineers and scientists with access to cutting-edge infrastructure and competence, providing a breeding ground for technology and material development, and education to enable Sweden to strengthen its position as one of the leading countries in materials science and sustainable material- and technology development.

At this event we inaugurate AM@Chalmers and WISE Additive node at Chalmers that provide access to the more than ten recently installed powder-based metal and multi-material additive manufacturing technologies as well as variety of powder characterization techniques. This will enable the development of new material combinations and microstructures, not possible to obtain using traditional manufacturing technologies, that can outperform existing materials. Examples include large, complex components of metallic glasses, metal/metal and metal/ceramic composites, gradient material structures, multi-material additive manufacturing of multi-functional components, etc. 

Registration will be open from August until September 22 via this page.
