"Additive Manufacturing changes the world". Is this just a vision or already real? Live event series "inside AM" provides interesting behind the scenes insights
Manuel Laux, Head of AM Solutions – 3D post processing technology, explains: "Anybody, who deals with the subject Additive Manufacturing, is probably overwhelmed by reports about the numerous innovative applications of this technology. With our interesting interactive event, we, jointly with our guests, want to shine a light on the question ‘Additive manufacturing changes the world. Is this just a vision or already real?’ and provide information on the actual situation."
"When AM Solutions presented this new discussion concept to me, I immediately liked the idea to look at Additive Manufacturing from different angles and from the view of different industries. It is honest and informative", comments Christoph Hansen, Director
