Scaling 3D Printing for Manufacturing Speaker - John Barnes: John has a 25+ year career in product development and aerospace with Honeywell, Lockheed Martin Skunk Works™, Australia’s CSIRO, and Arconic. He’s been involved in metal additive manufacturing throughout his career beginning in the late 1990s where he was part of the Sandia National Labs LENS™ CRADA. Since then, he has been in and around AM working both technical and business cases for implementation and development efforts in materials, powders, processing, and printing to mature the technology for applications. John is recognized internationally for contributions to additive manufacturing, product development, and leadership in engineering. His teams boast world firsts in medical, therapeutic, and aerospace additive manufacturing. He is a Materials Engineer by background but has developed expertise in manufacturing, airframe structures, gas turbines and low observables.He has over 14 Patents or patents in application. He was Purdue University’s Materials Engineer of the Year in 2014. He serves SME in Additive Manufacturing Technical Community as an SME AM Advisor based upon active industry contributions, reputation, and personal commitment to expand the use of additive manufacturing. He has many publications and invited presentations. He holds a B.S. and M.S. in Materials Engineering from Purdue University Abstract: Additive Manufacturing (AM) has attracted a lot of attention over the years but in 2019 and 2020 a significant shift has occurred emphasizing producibility, productivity and production versus research or discovery. A key to obtaining production status is making a business case. Making a business case in AM is sometimes not straightforward given the disruptive nature of the technology. Understanding the cost drivers assists in improving productivity. Producibility also complements productivity as when the two are combined, a better informed business case can be created. In this presentation, we will cover a few aspects of productivity and some of the technical elements which are driving cost when using AM.
