Additively manufactured composites offer advantages that include greater design flexibility, decreased costs, and production efficiency. Listen as Tim Schniepp, Stratasys business development director for composite tooling, explains the benefits and capabilities of fused deposition modeling (FDM) composite tooling, including examples of customers who successfully use this application.
What you’ll learn:
• Reinforced thermoplastics for high-performance applications
• Cost and time-saving benefits of FDM compared with traditional lay-up tools
• Key design considerations will minimize cost while providing optimal results
About the presenter:
Tim leads the composite tooling program for the Vertical Solutions Business Unit within Stratasys. Prior to joining Stratasys in 2014, Tim was a materials and process engineering leader at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab, GE Aviation, and Lockheed Martin. He has significant hands-on experience in composites fabrication and specifically with FDM for production of composite tooling.
