Description

Additive manufacturing processes (3D printing) are opening up new business areas, enabling highly complex, previously unsolvable approaches and changing value chains.

This key technology is opening up new ways of thinking, solutions and products for companies and customers.

As one of Switzerland's largest technical universities of applied sciences, the ZHAW School of Engineering offers industry an ‘Additive Manufacturing Platform’ to support it in adapting to changes and challenges.

As specialists in additive manufacturing technology and artificial intelligence, we serve the industry as a development partner and consultant – from the initial idea to the final product.
