The growing need for education, alongside increased offerings and adoption, has provided us with the opportunity to lead the discussion on the future of making things. We have developed a dynamic area on the show floor to showcase the industry’s most advanced smart technologies: the Smart Manufacturing Hub. The Smart Manufacturing Hub will feature several advanced manufacturing technologies, including automation, advanced materials, 3D printing, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), 3D scanning, and more. Technical presentations from industry-leading smart technology providers will provide insight on recent developments in this rapidly evolving field.

Additive Manufacturing Standards Forum

This special program to discuss the current state of standards needed to advance the use of additive manufacturing. Explore identified gaps and priorities and hear the latest developments from several standards development organizations (SDOs).  The America Makes & ANSI Additive Manufacturing Standards Collaborative (AMSC) Standardization Roadmap for Additive Manufacturing 1.0 was published February 2017. Since then, several SDOs have added new work items to their plans and AMSC is working toward version 2.0 of the roadmap.
