Additive Manufacturing Conference Announces Technical Program for 2016

The Additive Manufacturing Conference (AMC) 2016, presented by Additive Manufacturing Magazine, has announced the complete line-up of technical sessions. The two-day event will offer attendees unique ways to connect with leading suppliers, end-users and researchers of industrial applications of additive manufacturing technologies.

Taking place alongside the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS), at Chicago, IL’s, McCormick Place, September 13-14^th, 2016, the AMC program includes 20 technical sessions examining design, material, machinery and applications technology used in metal additive manufacturing.  Registration to the AMC also includes access to the more than 2,000 exhibiting companies at the IMTS.  Specific AM Conference topics include lightweighting, robotic additive manufacturing, combining additive and traditional manufacturing, software, automation and much more.

The AMC is dedicated to exploring the ways that additive technologies can be implemented in an industrial setting, offering technical insights on additive manufacturing technologies past and present, as well as the future impact and potential applications of emerging technologies.  In addition to the technical sessions, attendees will have access to the more than 20 sponsors who will be showcased in the exhibit/networking room where continued conversations can be conducted in a more relaxed setting.

“The conference is designed to demonstrate the benefits and obstacles to expanding the use of additive processes in production facilities,” said Allison Miller, Event Manager. “IMTS with its stature as the largest metalworking event in North America offers the perfect setting to explore the processes, equipment and materials used for making production parts and tooling.”

Registration is open for Additive Manufacturing Conference 2016. Full event details are available at AdditiveConference.com.
