PostProcess Technologies Inc., a global provider of automated and intelligent post-printing solutions for industrial 3D printing, makes available its 2nd Annual Additive Manufacturing Post-Printing Trends Report via download on Tuesday, September 1, with a live webinar presentation on Thursday, September 3. Developed from their industry-wide 2020 survey, this year’s iteration reveals deeper analysis into key trends and statistics regarding post-printing challenges, growth plans and more. Some of the key highlights include:
For respondents using print technologies that are closest to production, these individuals are reporting the highest post-printing expenditures and most challenges with labor usage.
Respondents using Material Extrusion, such as fused deposition modeling, have the most difficulty with damaged parts. Traditional methods of manually removing supports and sanding, as well as dunk tanks that can warp parts, are a possible culprit.
The majority of respondents in high growth markets—automotive, aerospace and defense—report that their current post-print methods are already a challenge to meeting their current additive manufacturing goals.
“With PostProcess’s unique position of offering solutions across the entire market, we are able to aggregate and analyze the data with a distinct perspective,” Dean Von Bank, VP of Strategic Partnerships, says. “We’re excited to share these findings in a live webinar that will be presented on September 3rd.”
