Additive Manufacturing has become a revolutionary technology across many sectors. Providing design freedom, the ability to mass customise products, to enable on-demand production, and even re-create obsolete components, AM is proving
invaluable in industries from aerospace to medical. Added to this, AM now supports a huge range of

materials, including polymers, metals, ceramics and composites, as well as the bio-materials often used in medical and research, opening up the potential applications even further. In our Additive Manufacturing/3D printing section this month, however, we focus on a new area: Additive Manufactured Electronics (AME). AME is rapidly emerging as a transformative alternative to traditional prototyping and production in the electronics industry. In this article we find out how AME is reshaping product development and production, paving the way for a future where electronics manufacturing is more agile, efficient and decentralised. Nir Sade, general manager AME at Nano Dimension and author of the article, said: “We are
expecting there to be breakthrough developments in the way AME is used soon, as customers we’re working with have already qualified the first applications to be manufactured using the benefits of AME.” Turn to page 26 to find out more. Exhibitions are always a great way to find out about the latest technologies and innovations, so on page 43 you will find our a preview to the next event in the calendar: Smart Manufacturing Week 2025. Taking place at the NEC in Birmingham on 4-5 June, there will be four major exhibitions under one roof, including Design & Engineering Expo, Smart Factory Expo, Drives & Controls, and Maintec, plus two specialised zones for Fluid Power & Systems and Air-Tech. We look forward to seeing you there!
