To support the transition of metalworking and CNC shops into additive manufacturing, we hosted an online webinar targeting these sectors. The webinar featured case studies and examples from companies that had successfully incorporated AM into their production workflows. Our goal was to demonstrate how AM could enhance production processes—from prototyping to tool creation and end-use parts—offering cost and time savings.
A total of 12 companies participated in the webinar. This session included practical insights into best practices for AM integration, potential challenges, and solutions that catered specifically to metal and CNC-based industries. During the webinar, we also introduced Pilot 3, “Borrow a Printer,” and two of the participating companies expressed interest in borrowing a printer.
Attendees gained a clearer understanding of AM’s value, helping them identify areas in their own operations where AM could be beneficial.
