1st Campaign “How can AM post-processing be optimized?”

This first campaign enables interested parties from industry, research and society to create, test and validate promising applications and product ideas based on existing and new technologies and materials. Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies offer huge potential for many sectors of the economy and related applications. In order to profit from these advantages for innovative products, production process chains must be simplified, and made cheaper. Thereby, especially the post-processing of AM parts is often complex, costly and time-consuming.

On the ideation platform, participants can formulate their needs and ideas in order to subsequently identify potential for optimized AM post processing. Participants can team up and work together on solutions to present them to our experts. The best and most promising concepts receive a grant amount of between CHF 10,000.- up to CHF 25,000.-.

Campaign Timeline & Requirements

The AM specialists of the NTN IBAM discussed by the end of 2020 which topic within the additive manufacturing needs to be solved. Finally, the NTN IBAM team decided to start a first campaign in the field of post-processing of AM parts. This process is often complex, costly and time-consuming and often prevents industrialisation.
