Hello and welcome to the 2015 ASME Additive Manufacturing + Ivan Madera, MORF3D
3D Printing (AM3D) Conference, the inaugural event in a new Ed Morris, America Makes
series of conferences focusing on digital manufacturing and design
innovation! David Rosen, Georgia Institute of Technology
Given all of the hype surrounding 3D printing, we decided to focus Brian Rosenberger, Lockheed Martin
this inaugural conference on “the engineering behind additive John David Rowatt, Schlumberger
manufacturing” and create an industry-focused event that explores
how additive manufacturing is reshaping how we design, make, and Tim Shinbara, AMT
qualify parts. Zack Simkin, Senvol
We secured an impressive list of thought leaders and practitioners Krishnan Suresh, University of Wisconsin-Madison
from both industry and academia to discuss their views on the real
challenges and opportunities of additive manufacturing (AM). Darrell Wallace, Youngstown State University
The conference begins by discussing the economics behind AM Xiaoping Yang, Cummins
and use cases for AM and then moves into candidate part selection
and design tools for AM. Participants will witness live demos of the
latest software tools and technologies for AM design and topology Finally, I would also like to thank ASME for the excellent staff support
optimization and for AM process modeling and simulation, which is for this event, particularly Israr Kabir who kept us on track, on time,
becoming more and more critical for successful AM fabrication. and on task this past year. I am also grateful to all the logistical and
Materials and processing challenges will be highlighted by those administrative help we received from Raj Manchanda, Erin Dolan,
working in a range of industries, and we wrap up with industry and Mary Jakubowski at ASME, and from Jeff Rhoads and his team
