Can a hybrid machine tool lower the cost of additive manufacturing?
Manufacturing consultants at TechSolve investigate if 3D metal printing can be inexpensively retrofitted to a legacy machining center.
Could a cost-effective metal additive manufacturing technology be developed to speed adoption by U.S. industry? That question prompted America Makes – the national accelerator for additive manufacturing and 3D printing – to issue a project call to find out. The results can be found at the digital edition of this story.
