2026 Additive Manufacturing Conference

The 2026 Additive Manufacturing (AM) for Metalcasting Conference is an essential event for designers, operators, casting buyers, and suppliers. Industry leaders from academia and foundry sectors will present sessions spanning the full spectrum of AM technologies, including design for additive manufacturing (DfAM), 3D printed sand molds and cores, printed hard tooling and fixtures, hybrid applications, and cutting-edge AM research. Attendees will hear recent foundry case studies demonstrating how AM has addressed design, tooling, and production challenges, as well as how it has unlocked opportunities beyond the reach of traditional methods. The conference will also explore important questions, such as how 3D printed sand molds compare to conventional serial production in light of economies of scale, and the role of AM in potentially replacing traditional manufacturing methods. Join a network of industry experts and practitioners at the 2026 AFS Additive Manufacturing Conference, hosted by the American Foundry Society, scheduled for October…
