Silicon carbide is not a material problem—it’s a manufacturing one. Silicon carbide (SiC) has become a critical material across semiconductors, aerospace, energy, and defense. Its exceptional thermal stability, chemical resistance,…

As the additive manufacturing industry continues its rapid global evolution, one theme has risen to the top of strategic conversations: the importance of strengthening domestic production to support national competitiveness…

Global supply chains are being re-written. After decades of globalisation driven primarily by cost efficiency, geopolitical tensions, trade disputes and pandemic-era disruptions have exposed the risks of concentrating manufacturing and…

The dental industry has undergone a dramatic transformation over the past decade. Traditional fabrication methods, such as manual casting, milling, and hand finishing, are being steadily replaced by digital workflows…

Formnext 2025 offered a clear view of where Additive Manufacturing currently stands: an industry that has moved well beyond its hype phase and is progressing at different speeds across technologies,…

As additive manufacturing moves from innovation to execution, success is no longer defined by machine capability alone. For the most demanding U.S. defense programs, additive manufacturing must be engineered, qualified,…

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is no longer judged by its printing capabilities, but how it can print reliably, repeatedly, at scale. As metal AM continues its transition from prototyping to production,…

Last year, on stage at AM Strategies, the argument was simple: additive manufacturing had to stop chasing elegance and start chasing economics. The 3D printing community had spent decades refining…

As additive manufacturing (AM) continues its transition from a niche technology to a core element of industrial production, workforce development has emerged as one of the industry’s most pressing issues….

Back in 2013, I remember being completely blown away when a company called Solid Concepts reportedly additively manufactured nearly a complete firearm as a proof of concept. Although desktop polymer…

As European industries face growing pressure to strengthen resilience, reduce supply chain risks, and meet sustainability objectives, additive manufacturing (AM) is emerging as a practical and strategic solution. Closely align…

Additive manufacturing has reached an inflection point. Hardware capabilities continue to advance, materials portfolios are expanding rapidly, and automation is reshaping post‑processing and production workflows. Yet many additive programs still…

Additive manufacturing (AM) has evolved quickly. What began as a tool for prototyping and fixtures is now used for true production across aerospace, medical, industrial, and consumer markets. As AM…

Additive Manufacturing is no longer an experimental technology operating on the margins of industrial production. Over the past decade, it has become an integral part of how OEMs design, produce,…

Additive manufacturing (AM) is steadily changing the way we think about producing metal parts for aircraft. Whilst aerospace and defense companies have been using metal AM for over twenty years,…

Through its short history, Additive Manufacturing has been presented to the investment community as a classic high growth technology story. Manufacturing is a multi-trillion-dollar market. Even a small percentage looks…

For years, 3D printing in sports has been linked mostly with prototypes, concept shoes, and one-off experiments for elite athletes. Helmets, cleats, and footwear midsoles often took over the headlines,…

One of the most reliable ways to stay updated on activity in the additive manufacturing (AM) industry is to subscribe to AM Research’s data services, available for both the polymer…

It might not always feel like it, but the additive manufacturing (AM) industry is having a decent year, all things considered. As usual, AM Research (AMR) is busy analyzing and…

It may not seem like it, but February is right around the corner, and that means it’s almost time for our 9th annual Additive Manufacturing Strategies event. Returning to New…

By now, more or less everyone in the AM industry seems to grasp the central role in accelerating AM adoption played by the defense sector in general, and the U.S….

Peter Rogers has held many different titles within the additive manufacturing (AM) industry over the years, with the latest title being CEO of Layered Ltd, the consultancy Peter founded, headquartered…
