The Pitfalls and Potential of Implementing AM with Joris Peels & Max Bogue of 3DPOD
Episode description
The current state of additive manufacturing is paradoxical. Its ability to create remarkable objects stands in contrast to the challenges of establishing a compelling business case for its universal use.
To explore how and when additive will go mainstream, Host Fabian Alefeld welcomes the hosts of the 3DPOD podcast, Joris Peels and Max Bogue. Joris is the executive editor at 3Dprint.com and the VP of Consulting at AM Research. Max Bogue is Chairman and Founder of Wobbleworks and the creator of the innovative 3Doodler, the most popular 3D pen on the market. They discuss the current state of additive, the challenges of implementing AM in organizations, and the sweet spot for growth.
