Webinar: Going Big in Metal 3D Printing: Insights from Experts

This webinar will help attendees understand how large parts are built using metal 3D printing, how to design for the process and the additional considerations required for post print processing and quality requirements. Whether the attendee is new to additive manufacturing or evaluating metal 3D printing technology for their production project, this presentation will help identify when the technology provides the most value and what to consider when manufacturing large additive metal parts.

Attendees will learn:

• What industries and applications can benefit most from metal 3D printing
• How to design large metal parts for the metal 3D printing process
• What to consider when evaluating metal 3D printing for a production project

Speakers

• Joe Cretella, Application Engineer, Protolabs
• René de Cauze de Nazelle, Senior Product Manager, GE Additive
