AM Radio
Additive Manufacturing Media
AM Radio talks about what's really going on in additive manufacturing. Produced by Additive Manufacturing Media, editors Stephanie Hendrixson, Julia Hider, and Peter Zelinski discuss the places they've been, the applications they've seen, and the trends in additive manufacturing they think they are seeing. And sometimes, they'll even pull back the curtain and bring you the story behind the story.

Additive manufacturing and robots are parallel technologies, both digitally enabled tools for manufacturing that are advancing in adoption. But they also enable each other. 3D printing can provide the grippers, end effectors and other specialized tooling that robots require to serve production. And robots are driving AM forward as well. Collaborative robots or cobots are being used to tend 3D printer farms, sometimes mounted on autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs) for a fully mobile, as well as automated, solution. And robots are opening opportunities for larger and more complex part production, by providing the motion for a growing number of large format additive manufacturing (LFAM) systems. In this episode of AM Radio, Gardner Business Media Robots & Autonomy editor Julia Hider joins Stephanie Hendrixson and Pete Zelinski to discuss how AM and robots interact, and specific examples of this interaction.
