First conference fully dedicated to 3D printing materials

The ongoing development of new materials does not only have impact on the quality of the 3D printed end product, it opens new markets and it has a positive influence on the price level of the used materials. The roads to success in the 3D printing sector will depend on fine-tuning materials to the needs of each application. This fine-tuning process will involve the type and the quality, strength and costs of materials, but also the selection of marketing channels and for example packaging of the end product.

Since each user group and each application needs its own materials set, the market has huge potential: it seems that hardly a day goes by without new materials being added to the 3D printing palette.

The first international 3D Printing Materials Conference offers the attendee a platform on the crossroads of science, technology & business in 3D printing materials. Curious in where technology will take us? Share knowledge, get inspired by the experience of other professionals and start networking at the 3D Printing Materials Conference at open innovation R&D hotspot Chemelot Campus in Geleen, The Netherlands.

The cutting edge program includes a keynote presentation of Toon Roels of Materialise (about Polymer Materials for 3D Printing: Future Developments & Needs) and a wide range of break out presentations. Next to these inspiring presentations, the 3D Printing Materials Conference features an exhibition area. Check the program for the complete overview.

The 3D Printing Materials program includes:

• Seminar with presentations of selected professionals.
• Exhibition with innovative companies and upcoming start-ups.
• Lunch and networking reception to create the ideal opportunity to network in an open setting.

Register for the 3D Printing Materials Conference at Chemelot Campus and connect with international companies and organisations.
