Technology Showcase

Our 2023 Technology Showcase features innovations and hands-on interactive demonstrations related to technologies that will enable the development, training, and retention of the manufacturing workforce. Attendees will experience and interact with recent tech innovations from suppliers, OEMs, or other companies and organizations who support manufacturers.

3D Printing for the Manufacturing Workforce

Workforce training in additive manufacturing (AM) is becoming increasingly important as this industry is creating new capabilities for manufacturers.  We can provide services to train manufacturers in AM that will enable you to get your designs ready to be 3D printed to rapidly prototyping your designs. We have 3D Printer solutions for everyone including manufacturers, educators, designers, and engineers. During the demo sample parts will be provided for 3D scanning, printing, and evaluation.
