5th Symposium on Materials and Additive Manufacturing - Additive 2026

Additive Manufacturing revolutionizes production with design, customization, and functional optimization. Beyond aerospace and medical fields, AM is now used in mass production and tooling. However, SMEs still face material and process challenges. The "5th Symposium on Materials and Additive Manufacturing, Additive 2026" will explore topics like alloy design, beam shaping, fatigue, post-treatments, quality, sustainability, and more, bridging research and application in metallic 3D printing.

Additive manufacturing (AM) is one of the most promising and innovative production technologies of the 21st century. It goes beyond the technological limits of traditional manufacturing and offers new possibilities for creating highly customized parts with complex design and functionality.

Layer-wise production, the core principle of additive manufacturing eventually enabling unprecedented freedom of design, is the major factor promoting the utilization of this technology in many industrial branches. Nowadays, not only high-tech industries such as medical and aerospace engineering exploit the potentials of additive manufacturing, also commercial applications in mass production rely on the technology, e. g. in advanced tooling design and repair. Limiting factors of traditional, primarily subtractive, manufacturing processes can be overcome and aspects such as customization and smart solutions, following design for function principles, come into focus. Still, not every application benefitting from additive manufacturing is identified in everydays business, and especially in small to medium enterprises roadblocks prevail due to manufacturing- and material-related challenges. To further widen the field of applications, the “5th Symposium on Materials and Additive Manufacturing - Additive 2026” will address most recent topics in the field of metallic “3D-printing”, from basic research to practical application. Among others, the following focal points are discussed:

Alloy design for additive manufacturing
Beam shaping and other process developments
Fatigue properties and advanced characterization techniques
Graded properties and multi-material methods
Post treatments and their impact on microstructure and defects
Powder development for additive manufacturing
Quality assurance and reproducibility in additive manufacturing
Refurbishment, repair and recycling through additive manufacturing
Simulation-based development of additive processes and materials
Sustainability of products manufactured by additive manufacturing
The entire program committee and me are looking forward to inspiring contributions, productive discussions and active networking in Kassel, in the heart of Germany!

Hilfe

Die Suche / Erweiterte Suche im idw-Archiv
Verknüpfungen

Sie können Suchbegriffe mit und, oder und / oder nicht verknüpfen, z. B. Philo nicht logie.

Klammern

Verknüpfungen können Sie mit Klammern voneinander trennen, z. B. (Philo nicht logie) oder (Psycho und logie).

Wortgruppen

Zusammenhängende Worte werden als Wortgruppe gesucht, wenn Sie sie in Anführungsstriche setzen, z. B. „Bundesrepublik Deutschland“.

Auswahlkriterien

Die Erweiterte Suche können Sie auch nutzen, ohne Suchbegriffe einzugeben. Sie orientiert sich dann an den Kriterien, die Sie ausgewählt haben (z. B. nach dem Land oder dem Sachgebiet).

Haben Sie in einer Kategorie kein Kriterium ausgewählt, wird die gesamte Kategorie durchsucht (z.B. alle Sachgebiete oder alle Länder).
