EOS North American User Day Comes to IMTS
The User Day is one of multiple events at IMTS addressing heightened interest in additive manufacturing technology. Additive has also added its name to a pavilion.
This batch of parts produced through direct metal laser sintering
was made by one example of an EOS user, C&A Tool.
At next month’s International Manufacturing Technology Show, various new developments reflect IMTS attendees’ heightened interest in additive manufacturing and the sizable number of exhibitors offering additive manufacturing services or technology. This category has now added its name to a pavilion: This year the North Hall will house the Fabricating/Laser/Additive Pavilion. In addition, a new event has been added to the show: the half-day Additive Manufacturing Workshop September 9.
One other significant additive manufacturing development is this: EOS, the maker of additive manufacturing machines for metal and plastic parts, has for the first time brought its North American User Day to IMTS. The recurring event that gathers together users of EOS laser-sintering technology will take place Wednesday, September 10, and is open to both EOS customers and IMTS attendees. Speakers will include Dr. Hans Langer, the company’s founder and CEO, as well as companies offering solutions related to additive manufacturing such as MicroTek Finishing, Shapeways and Within.
