We're building a world that works.
Every day our talented AddWorks consulting team uses its extensive AM experience to guide customers along their additive journey. From essential trainings to final part production, the AddWorks team works shoulder-to-shoulder with our customers, helping them use this transformative technology to change their businesses—and the future.
Customer outcomes, an example:
- We helped a key customer make an informed decision to shorten or streamline their capital equipment purchase cycle down to 7 months.
- We showed the customer how to unlock enough applications to maintain full annual capacity on two machines, on their own, in 4 months.
- We enabled the customer with the ability to fully utilize their equipment quicker, decrease their payback period on the equipment, and increase their ROI.
- We taught the customer how to make critical business decisions around additive independently and cost-effectively.
Collaborate with the AddWorks team at GE Additive today to find your faster path to full-scale metal additive production.
Our products
As a power user of metal additive technology, GE’s AddWorks team your trusted partner.

Workshops
Discovery Workshop
Learn how to select the right parts for AM. Create your business case by drafting a strategic roadmap that includes your project list with cost analysis, benefits, and an implementation strategy.
Design Workshop
Learn to design, analyze, and prepare AM parts, including support structure and process modeling. Garner a new understanding of advanced AM design and how to optimize parts for the AM process.
Industrialization Workshop
Access tools, such as machines and facilities, to enable full production.
Create a step-by-step plan and a period to move toward production of your metal additive part.

Application Sprints
Concept Sprint
Our Discovery Workshop combined with developing a plan for a selected application. Our team will help you develop the concept and refine your business case. Expect a final concept and roadmap for the next phase of your additive journey at the end of this sprint.
Development Sprint
Our Design Workshop plus advanced techniques to help iterate design and methods for metal additive parts. Arrive at a final design and a roadmap for industrialization and production.
Production Sprint
The Production Sprint includes our Industrialization Workshop tailored to your specific application. This sprint also includes the development of process specifications, to help enable the production of your application.

Engineering services
Let our experts tackle the challenges for you. We can take your part requirements and develop the application-specific design, material, or manufacturing process to meet your needs, so you can explore additive without adding infrastructure to adopt the technology.

Printing services
Printing additive parts is both an art and science. The right experience and technological equipment are necessary to print successful parts that meet product requirements. Our experienced AddWorks engineers provide guidance around the design process, then follow through to the manufacturing process. They gather feedback, adjust the design as needed, and print the part again.
We have experience transitioning prototype parts to production in our AS9100 certified Cincinnati, Ohio facility. We’ll develop your manufacturing process to help maximize productivity and throughput.
Printing services enables our customers to supplement their supply chain while they establish their additive part procurement strategy. GE will leverage in-network additive machines to accelerate the development and industrialization of a customer’s application.

GE Additive’s Manufacturing Partner Network (MPN) takes an ecosystem approach to addressing several commercial challenges to ensure the additive industry reaches its next inflection point. As companies look for cost-efficient, scalable routes to volume production, limited access to equipment, funding to invest and expertise often prevent them from taking the next critical steps. Our chosen manufacturing partners are trusted service bureaus for customers who aren't ready for vertical integration but need their parts printed at scale.
