What you'll learn

Same material, from first part to final production


10:30 AM on July 13. Grab a coffee, relax and spend the next 60 minutes away from your Slack notifications.

How to process production-grade TPEs directly on a pellet AM system, from ultra-soft elastomers to rigid grades on a single machine, and why substitute materials cannot replicate the behaviour.

What multi-material printing unlocks in a real development cycle, from part design to mechanical validation.

How thermoplastic elastomers are formulated for pellet additive manufacturing, and which grades are already qualified for industrial use.

What sustained daily production use actually costs, produces and teaches, from the people who run it every day.

How to get started: machine requirements, material availability, and what a first project looks like.
