Cheshire, UK, 5th January 2009: The Rapid Manufacturing Conference will be a featured highlight of the TCT Live 2009 programme. A successful and much-respected event, now in its 14th year, the conference will focus solely on the application of rapid manufacturing — the production of end use parts using additive layer manufacturing technologies. With more and more companies realising the benefits of rapid manufacturing in terms of time and costs of production, there has never been a better time to share and learn about this technology.
The event organisers are now inviting paper submissions for its 2009 programme. The conference, which will once again take place at the prestigious and well-positioned Ricoh Arena in Coventry 20th–21st October 2009, will be fully dedicated to the applications of Rapid Manufacturing technologies together with the associated business issues.
The Conference Manager would welcome any paper submissions from parties interested in presenting at the TCT 2009 conference. Only papers that present a definitive application of RM — using additive fabrication — should be submitted. The paper should consider the design issues, the business benefits in terms of time-to-market and financial objectives, material issues and part performance.
All submissions must be non-promotional in content and presented by companies that are utilising and/or researching the technologies for an industrial application. Furthermore, all papers will be reviewed by an external committee to ensure that they meet the necessary and exacting requirements of TCT.
No vendor papers will be accepted from companies that sell machines, materials or associated services.
Interested parties are initially requested to submit a detailed abstract (around 300 words) of their proposed paper on or before 1st February 2009. This should include the working title, all authors/contributors and their affiliations.
Please submit abstracts to Jenna Reid via email: jenna@rapidnews.com
