additiveconference.com 9 October 20-21, 2015 | @learnadditive | Additive Technologies for Industrial Production 10:30am-11:00am Practical Applications of Additive Manufacturing Sanjay Joshi, The Pennsylvania State University Joshi is a Professor of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering and Engineering Design at The Pennsylvania State University, where he has been researching practical applications of AM for end-use production parts. In this discussion, he'll examine various actual end-use components produced through AM, along with the story of each of those components focusing on any diffculties that had to be overcome to apply AM in that application. 11:00am-11:30am 3D Printed Sand To Make Prototype / Short Run Castings Steve Murray, Hoosier Pattern Topic and questions that will be explored in the presentation are: What you need to know before you go to a print house or foundry. Defning what you want. How prototype and short run production differ and are the same. Freedom of design using 3D printed sand to make your casting. Rules you must adhere to in the casting world. 11:30am-12:00pm Modeling the Metal Additive Manufacturing Process at the Scales of the Part and the Powder Wayne King, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory In this presentation we discuss recent progress in developing physics-based models for the metal powder bed fusion process. We discuss Keynote Presentation 8:00am-8:45am Welcome to the Third Industrial Revolution - Local Motors and the 3D Printed Car Keynote Speaker: Jay Rogers, Local Motors Welcome to the world of Local Motors - a technology company that designs, builds and sells vehicles. The Local Motors community recently unveiled their latest vehicle: Strati the world's frst 3D Printed Car. Now, Local Motors is taking production to a new level with the recent announcement that it expects to have an 3D printed electric card for sale next year. Jay Rogers, CEO of Local Motors, will discuss the implications of Direct Digital Manufacturing utilizing large-scale additive and subtractive processes. 8:45am-9:15am Understanding and Overcoming the Challenges of Additive Manufacturing Rick Lucas, ExOne There has been a lot of excitement around additive manufacturing because of seemingly unlimited designs that now are possible. Additive fabrication methods can produce parts that are a fraction of the weight of parts produced with conventional manufacturing methods. The processes needed to generate these complex parts are not without their challenges and problems. A lack of understanding the current limitations of additive manufacturing has led to failures and unsuccessful commercialization for many companies. In this presentation we will examine these challenges and discuss what is differences of approach between North American and Europe? From a technical perspective, what are the main targets/components for this technology? What materials are primary inputs, and is this expected to change? How is the supply chain structured and how might it change? What is the impact on traditional material providers (i.e. mills) and traditional "subtractive" manufacturing facilities (i.e. CNC machine shops)? What is a general cost model that underpins the business case for additive manufactured parts vs traditional processes? What is the current state of the industry in terms of OEM, Tier 1 and 2 participation? How does this differ between engine vs airframe markets? To what extent has the industry collaborated to develop standards, and is this expected to change materially going forward? Tours 2:00pm-4:00pm Local Motors Tour Join us as we tour Local Motors! Please note that this tour will be limited to the facility completion. If you have any questions, please contact Tori at toris@gardnerweb.com. 2:00pm-4:00pm Oak Ridge National Laboratory Tour Tour the Additive Facility of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory! Please note that because this tour is of a U.S. government facility, additional identifying information is required to attend this tour.

WEDNESDAY | 10.21.15 Program is subject to change. 2:00pm-2:45pm An Update on Additive Manufacturing at GE Aviation Greg Morris, GE Aviation Additive manufacturing is transforming the way manufacturing is done throughout the aerospace industry. GE Aviation is at the forefront of exploiting the advantages that additive manufacturing technology offers. Throughout this presentation, GE Additive Technologies Lead, Greg Morris, will look at the past, the present and the future of additive manufacturing adoption and innovation. 2:45pm-5:00pm Panel Discussion: Keys to Increase Industrial AM Adoption This panel will survey tools currently available to accelerate industrial adoption and highlight areas of opportunity to better engage the industrial AM supply base. On this panel you will hear from industry prime contractors, industry resources and value-chain contributors discussing from their perspective the current state and future goal of industrial adoption. Moderator: Tim Shinbara, The Association for Manufacturing Technology Panelists: Zach Simkin, Senvol; Eric Barnes, NGC; Rob Gorham, America Makes; Tim Armstrong, Carpenter Technologies being done to overcome these problems. We will also take a look at some examples of successful implementation of additive manufacturing and provide guidance on what companies should look for to successfully apply additive manufacturing now and into the future. 9:15am-9:45am AM Production Integration and the Future of Rapid Product Development Mike Siemer, Noble Siemer will discuss how additive manufacturing is starting to affect production and make companies more adaptive. Specifcally, the presentation will examine specifc additive manufacturing applications, rapid tooling options and key factors involved when choosing between tooling and additive manufacturing. 10:00am-10:30am FAA Testing Procedures for 3D Printed Titanium Aircraft Parts Shawn Ehrstein, National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) Ehrstein is the director of various labs at Wichita State University's National Institute for Aviation Research, including the additive manufacturing laboratory. In this capacity, he is working with the FAA to develop material and component testing procedures that will permit FAA approval of structural titanium aircraft parts made through 3D printing. This presentation will discuss the application of additive manufacturing to fight- critical aircraft components. a model at the scale of the powder that is used to computationally model the melting of powder and its resulting densifcation. It resolves randomly distributed individual powder particles in 3D. The laser-material interaction is treated via a physics- based absorption model. It models melting of the powder, fow and convection of the liquid, and morphology of the solidifed metal. We also discuss a model at the scale of the part that is used to computationally build a complete part and predict properties such as residual stress in 3D. It treats the powder as a lower density, low strength solid. The laser material interaction is treated using an energy source term. It models the melting/solidifcation transition and includes material strength. We also discuss the role of data mining and uncertainty qualifcation in the modeling and simulation process and describe future applications. 12:00pm-12:30pm Current and Future State of Additive Manufacturing for Commercial Aerospace Bill Bihlman, Aerolytics Additive manufacturing shows promise to be highly disruptive in many industrial markets. Aerospace, however, lags. This presentation will address the primary challenges that are rather unique to commercial aerospace. Why is commercial aerospace slow to adopting this technology? What can we expect regarding the certifcation process, and what is the general timeline? Are there structural differences between commercial and military markets? Are there fundamental
