Engineering’s Future: Additive Manufacturing

Engineering is one of the UK’s greatest strengths – powering industries from aerospace and automotive to clean energy, infrastructure, and elite sport. It contributes billions of pounds to the UK economy and employs millions, yet it remains undervalued in national culture and education.

One of the most exciting frontiers in engineering today is additive manufacturing – a technology that’s reshaping how we design, build, and innovate.

Additive manufacturing has multiple benefits. For example, it is ideal for low-volume, high-complexity parts and eliminates the costly need for moulds. It also allows for faster prototyping, reduced development time, and greater design freedom.

In the latest in–depth programme, “Engineering’s Future: Additive Manufacturing”, Executive TV speaks to a company specialising in additive manufacturing, explores some barriers to its adoption and what the future holds for the industry.
