Archive — Additive Talks recording from 2021. The speakers’ roles, company descriptions and discussion refer to that period.
On June 10, 2021, we gathered Dr. Elena Lopez, Head of Division Additive Manufacturing at Fraunhofer IWS as well as Alexander Pluke, co-founder and CEO of Additive Flow to discuss the various ways to optimize multi-functional parts built with Additive Manufacturing Technologies.
The discussion explores how AM can combine functions in a part and the design, materials and manufacturing challenges this raises. Some applications integrate active sub-components, while others obtain multiple functions through material or structural design.
In this vein, in a conversation moderated by Kety Sindze, Managing Editor at 3D ADEPT Media, Pluke and Lopez discuss this topic with key objectives in mind:
- Understand the concept of multi-functional parts.
- Discuss manufacturing processes, materials and design choices.
- Examine project examples and a live software demonstration.
- Address audience questions about optimizing multi-functional AM parts.
