VoxelMatters Consumer AM Focus 2024 eBook | VoxelMatters

Consumer applications of additive manufacturing are still relatively limited, however, there are certain areas where the technology has really made an impact. In this eBook, we are looking at a number of these areas, including eyewear, luxury products and sporting goods, to see how 3D printing technologies are changing the game.

In the following eBook, we are proud to present a selection of exclusive articles, including an analysis of the polymer and metal AM markets in the consumer vertical (with insights from VoxelMatters Research Metal and Polymer AM Reports 2023); an interview based on our recent podcast with OECHSLER’s Head of AM, Andreas Knoechel, where he discusses the company’s expanding services and customized product opportunities; coverage of Davide Sher’s recent visit to the MIDO 2024 Eyewear Show in Milan, where 3D printed frames were an undeniable highlight; a discussion with Nadine Lippa, Innovation Manager at Wilson Sporting Goods, about the commercial launch of the company’s innovative Airless Gen1 Basketball; and last but certainly not least, a conversation with Michel Sorkin, Co-Founder of Barrelhand, the company behind the Monolith wristwatch, which features a 3D printed chassis and holds the title of first-ever consumer product made from Scalmalloy. We hope you enjoy this edition of our AM Focus eBook, and don’t forget to tune in next month for our Polymer AM eBook.
