The Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing International Conference, organised by the University of Nottingham, will be held at the Nottingham Belfry between the 7th and the 9th of July, 2015.

The Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing International Conference has been running for almost a decade and the event was one of the first dedicated to additive manufacturing.
Renishaw's additive manufacturing specialists will be attending the exhibition to share their wealth of knowledge with over 300 delegates from 19 countries.

"Emerging technologies require support, which is why Renishaw has been involved with the additive manufacturing (AM) community since day one," says Robin Weston, marketing manager of Renishaw's Additive Manufacturing Products Division. “The industry is seeing new developments every day, so the Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing International Conference is a great opportunity to share knowledge and celebrate achievements.”

The first day of the event will be dedicated to scientific advances in AM. The next two days will be given over to a conference during which academic and industry speakers will discuss industry topics, such as the future of materials used in AM and applications of AM in the production and construction sectors. An exhibition including some of the highest profile names in additive manufacturing will also run in parallel with the conference.

The event aims to stimulate debate and offer an opportunity for academics and industry experts to meet, share valuable knowledge and inspire new ideas within this growing industry.
