Symposium for Additive Manufacturing | WELS – Upper Austria (AT)

Gain exciting insights into the world of research and the latest developments in 3D printing

Inspiring presentations by leading companies and our project partners will provide you with valuable information on current trends and innovative applications.
We are particularly looking forward to presenting the latest research results and practice-oriented applications of various AM processes at Wels University of Applied Sciences.
Take the opportunity to exchange ideas with experts, gain new impetus for your own projects and be inspired by the diverse possibilities of additive manufacturing.

And best of all, this symposium is free – but certainly not for nothing!

AGENDA

• The exact program will be announced shortly by the organizer.
• HIGHLIGHT: Lecture by Harald Spiegl (WESTCAM)
• For orientation, here is the 2025 program schedule

TrioTech | Additive. Subtractive. Precise

3D printing, machining & Metrology in networked practice

Modern manufacturing thrives on interaction. It is not a single technology that determines success, but the seamless integration of all processes.

1. ADDITIVE: 3D printing creates new design freedom and enables fast iterations
2. SUBTRAKTIV: CNC machining brings precision and perfect surfaces into play
3. PRECISE: 3D Metrology ensures quality assurance and provides reliable data throughout the entire workflow

In cooperation with our long-standing knowledge partner FH Wels, we will show you on site how these technologies interact optimally in practice.
