Five year’s ago, the Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF) launched a North American industry first—a conference completely dedicated to metal additive manufacturing (AM). This year’s AMPM2019: Additive Manufacturing with Powder Metallurgy conference, June 23–26, 2019, at the Sheraton Grand in Phoenix, promises to be the best yet, and the enormous growth of the industry reflects in the ever-expanding program and networking events.
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory researchers, along with scientists at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) have discovered a solution to a major type of defect in metal 3D-printed parts.
The Metal Powder Industries Federation’s Industry Development Board (IDB) has released the fourth and final video in a four-part educational series on powder metallurgy (PM). “Metal Additive Manufacturing” (AM) is hosted by PM industry leader John Engquist, FAPMI...
A powder metallurgy (PM) industry highlight, the annual Basic PM Short Course returns this summer to bring together those new to the PM industry and employees seeking to enhance their depth of PM knowledge and advance their careers. Held at Penn Stater Conference Center Hotel, State College, Pennsylvania, this intensive three-day course will run from August 12 through August 14, 2019.
Student attendance at POWDERMET2019, International Conference on Powder Metallurgy & Particulate Materials, and AMPM2019, Additive Manufacturing with Powder Metallurgy, could be at an all-time high this year thanks to several grant programs. In total, 75 grants have been awarded to students from colleges and universities from across the country. Students will have a technical poster on display at the conference and present a 10-minute synopsis during a Grant TNT: Talk ‘N Technology session.
The 2019 edition of MPIF Standard 35–SLB, Materials Standards for PM Self-Lubricating Bearings has been released. This Standard is a must-have document and provides the design and materials engineer with the latest engineering property data and information available to specify materials for structural parts made using the PM process.
From attendees to exhibitors and from speakers to students, networking is one of the most important functions at a conference. Form or strengthen relationships, get face-to-face time with customers, and ask follow-up questions to researchers in your field. This June, POWDERMET2019: International Conference on Powder Metallurgy & Particulate Materials and AMPM2019: the Additive Manufacturing with Powder Metallurgy conference are ready to set you and your company up for success.
Registration is now open for the conference PMTi2019: Powder Metallurgy and Additive Manufacturing of Titanium. After four successful conferences held in Australia, New Zealand, Germany, and China, this global conference will be held for the very first time in the United States in Salt Lake City at the University of Utah September 24–27, 2019.
MIM2019, International Conference on Injection Molding of Metals, Ceramics and Carbides, concluded in sunny Orlando, Florida, the last week of February. This year’s MIM conference attracted over 155 attendees representing 95 companies from 15 countries.
