Additive Manufacturing Media
This 3D printing podcast doesn’t shy away from asking the big questions about where additive manufacturing is currently and where it is headed. On AM Radio, Additive Manufacturing Media hosts share stories of companies succeeding with 3D printing today; talk about emerging trends; and discuss the future opportunities and potential for AM in the context of the larger manufacturing landscape.

Postprocessing is a necessary part of the additive manufacturing (AM) workflow in almost every instance, because 3D printing alone rarely yields a finished part ready for use. Depending on the materials and processes they choose, AM adopters have to account for depowdering, curing, heat treat, cleaning, dyeing, tumbling, machining and many other post-print operations. Coupled with the high-mix, low-volume production typical in AM, such steps are difficult to automate or optimize — leading many companies to develop innovative and often secretive internal processes.
In this episode of AM Radio, Stephanie Hendrixson, Peter Zelinski, Jessica Pompili and Jodee McElfresh share examples of how additive manufacturers solve their varied postprocessing challenges and seek to answer some of the questions around these critical steps.
