Conference RAPID TCT

At this point, it should be clear that the upcoming RAPID + TCT 2024 event will be far more than just a trade show with many different event features available with an Expo Pass. But one key reason that RAPID + TCT has always been valued in the AM community is the focus on education that is relatively unique among 3D printing events. This is shown especially through a vast and comprehensive conference program, accessible to attendees through a Full Conference Pass or One-Day Conference Pass.

Covering the three full days of the event, between June 25th and June 27th, RAPID + TCT’s conference program has become a legendary feature among attendees. This is not just thanks to the fact that it will cover pretty much every aspect of the additive manufacturing value chain, from software and materials all the way through 3D printing technologies and post-processing and applications, but that it truly has something for everyone. Whether you’re just exploring AM applications, or are a veteran to the technology looking to optimize your processes, the conference has something for everyone. Let’s take a closer look at what attendees can expect.

RAPID + TCT’s conference program will cover every aspect of the AM value chain.

Conferences in the Spotlight at RAPID + TCT 2024

The core of the conference agenda is the 160+ technical presentations. Led by hand-selected industry-leading experts, these are where to go to expand your additive manufacturing knowledge. And with presentations by experts from Google, Rivian, the US Air Force, Northrop Grumman, Zimmer Biomet and many more, the program promises to show insights from end-users as well as manufacturers working directly in the additive manufacturing sphere.

Furthermore, attendees can also tailor their conference schedule according to 14 defined tracks. Encompassing aerospace, healthcare, defense, automotive, energy, creative, process development, material development, standards and repeatability, 3D scanning, serial production, post processing, design for AM and economics, this makes choosing the conference presentations that best suit your needs easy. Furthermore, considering that these are some of the most relevant current topics in additive manufacturing, these are definitely not be to missed if you are looking to further your additive manufacturing knowledge or if you want to dive deeper into a specific vertical in the sector.
