Panel: Ceramic Additive Manufacturing Innovations
Friday, 24 April 2026
Additive manufacturing is evolving fast, but where are the breakthroughs that actually matter? This session brings together leading voices from across the ceramics and advanced materials sectors to assess the current state of AM innovation: from process and materials development to software advances and post-processing. Panellists will examine which application areas are becoming viable for the first time, what is still holding back wider industrial adoption, and where the most meaningful progress is likely to emerge over the next five years. Expect an honest, experience-led conversation that cuts through the noise and focuses on what is genuinely changing.
Discussion points:
• What innovation in additive manufacturing has surprised you most in the last couple of years?
• Where are the most significant advances happening, processes, materials, software, or post-processing?
• Which application areas are opening up that weren’t viable before, and why now?
• What are the remaining blockers to wider industrial adoption?
• Where do you expect the most meaningful progress in the next five years?
