Technology and Material for Polymers

In our Technology & Material for Polymers Working Group, the goal is to further improve polymer AM systems towards series production capabilities. Our vision within the Working Group is to shift the economic break-even point of polymer AM production compared to conventional processes or to make it possible at all.
