When you are using recycled powders, do you face issues with cross-contamination or powder packing? As you up-scale your additive manufacturing process and look towards purchasing more powder, do you encounter issues with powder segregation and flowability? Following the additive manufacturing or 3D printed process, do you encounter stress and strain issues? Whether you are involved in metal powders, polymers or precision ceramic powders, our workshop is the one for you!
DKSH and Malvern Panalytical is proud to bring to you a free one-day workshop, supported by ASTM International and National Additive Manufacturing Innovation Cluster (NAMIC). Collectively, we have a joint interest in sustainability in powder recycling, as well as providing guidance towards better powder design and superior performing finished products.
During this workshop, look forward to case studies and breakout discussions. We've invited speakers from ASTM International, NAMIC, Continuum, NUS and Malvern Panalytical. Shifting from theory to practicum, we invite you to bring not only your challenges, but also your powders for analysis in our lab.
