Mark Your Calendar for LAM 2016 & Discover the Advantage of Lasers in Additive Manufacturing LIA’s eighth annual Laser Additive Manufacturing (LAM®


Held in conjunction with LME, is its Lasers for Manufacturing Summit on Apr. 25, 2016. The Summit will bring together C-suite and other top executives who want to hear first-hand expert intelligence on how to use these powerful tools most profitably in a variety of high-value manufacturing applications. This one day event will provide a comprehensive market perspective that is unobtainable elsewhere, with market data segmented by applications and laser technology from the laser industry’s leading resources. For more information as it becomes available, visit www.laserevent.org.


) Workshop


will take place on Mar. 2-3, 2016 in Orlando, FL. This Workshop brings together representatives from industries including power generation, aerospace, agriculture and automotive. Attendees hear case studies from large and small firms that describe successes in depositing wire or powder with lasers to prevent and repair corrosion on vital components. In


addition, powder-bed and


powder-fed additive processes allow the production of innovatively designed lightweight parts by exploiting the root power of AM. The workshop will draw dozens of experts from around the world to discuss not only traditional laser-based techniques like cladding but the revolutionary applications of AM in medicine and dentistry, the aviation and automotive industries, and even consumer products.
