DE Hot Seat: Reconciling Additive and Subtractive

3D printing and machining: complementary or competitive?

DE Hot Seat: Reconciling Additive and Subtractive
DE Hot Seat episode explores the intersection of additive and subtractive.

DATE: Thursday, September 23, 2021
TIME: 1:00 PM ET/ 10:00 AM PT

Much of the recent focus has been on Additive Manufacturing (AM), giving the false impression that Subtractive Manufacturing is no longer relevant. But those on the frontline tell us, in the real world, Additive and Subtractive are merging, creating efficient hybrid workflows.

Tune in to hear experts discuss:

  • how 3D printing and machining complement each other;
  •  software that lets you explore hybrid production processes;
  • on-demand service providers that give you both options.
