From industrial to medical to space, laser additive manufacturing and 3-D printing has the potential to transform production across nearly every sector.

.

With almost one hundred years in business and nearly half a century in laser technology, TRUMPF has long been known as the gold-standard in advanced manufacturing solutions that now include additive manufacturing and 3-D printing. The company’s advancements in production technology span space exploration, medical devices, and Smart Factory development.

.

We sat down with Eliana Fu, Industry Manager for Aerospace & Medical at TRUMPF North America, to discuss how the company is transforming manufacturing processes for the better, both on earth and beyond. From assembling vehicles in space to manufacturing medical devices closer to the point of care to paving the way for the Smart Factory, TRUMPF is building the industrial world of tomorrow.

.

As we look to the future, the evolution of standards related to additive manufacturing will play a key role in accelerating its adoption. SAE is building expert committees to address this need. If you’d like to get involved, please contact us at [email protected].
