Public Speaking
Often you hear in AM that the only limitation is your mind. That is not accurate. But AM is unlocking new ways of doing things before, such as embedded electronics on 3D surfaces, conformal cooling channels impossible to machine.
I have given talks at SAMPE, RAPID (nation's largest AM trade show), and from small companies to F50 companies. Much of it is focused on education, with a focus what is realistic, where is everything headed, and what is interesting and new.
Inspiration is needed to get the most out of AM and setting realistic expectations. My job is to help people realize while traditional manufacturing probably isn't going anywhere anytime soon, it is getting displaced in certain sectors. One of the most prominent examples would be for example the apple watch, utilizing LPBF titanium printing to create thin walled structures which would have excessive buy to fly(scrap) ratios.
Let's work to get your team motivated to approach things differently.
