Can 3D printing move beyond prototyping and into production? Explore the digital workflows, design tools, and strategies making it possible. In this episode of Digital Transformation Talk, host Kevin Crane is joined by experts from HP, Eaton, Autodesk, and Nico to discuss how organizations can successfully scale 3D printing from rapid prototyping to full production. The panel explores the key challenges manufacturers face when adopting additive manufacturing for end-use production, including repeatability, quality control, material requirements, certification, and production economics. The conversation begins with a discussion of Adidas' upcoming release of fully 3D printed Climacool shoes. The panel then dives deeper into how digital design tools, simulation, generative design, AI-powered engineering workflows, and part consolidation are expanding the number of components suitable for production. Key topics include: ✅ Transitioning from prototyping to production with additive manufacturing ✅ Design for additive manufacturing (DfAM) strategies ✅ Digital workflows and manufacturing automation ✅ AI, generative design, and topology optimization ✅ Quality, repeatability, and production scalability ✅ Material considerations and certification requirements ✅ Legacy part redesign and digital inventories ✅ End-use parts, jigs, fixtures, and production tooling ✅ Industrial 3D printing applications across multiple industries Whether you're exploring production 3D printing, evaluating industrial additive manufacturing, or looking to improve digital manufacturing workflows, this discussion provides practical insights from industry professionals working at the intersection of software, manufacturing, and production operations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LINKS: Learn more about HP Additive Manufacturing Solutions: https://bit.ly/4puonWM Contact with an HP 3D Print expert: https://bit.ly/4pwFUOg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #HP3DPrinting #HPAdditiveManufacturing #DigitalManufacturing #AdditiveManufacturing #Industrial3DPrinting ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ About HP Additive Manufacturing: HP Additive Manufacturing Solutions, a division of HP Inc., provides industrial 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions for manufacturers, product engineers, designers, and production service providers.
