Velo3D, a global metal additive manufacturing company focused on mission-critical components, is adding new locations for its 2023 “Proof is in the Printing” Additive Manufacturing event series.
The company said it is slated to do eight more shows across Asia and Europe to deliver valuable insights to more engineers of all backgrounds and experience levels on how additive manufacturing can transform their business.
Participants in the roadshow will be given the opportunity to learn how to qualify 3D printed parts for use in real-world environments and achieve consistent outcomes across any printer for scalable supply chains.
Locations for the European and Asian legs of the tour include shows in Ausburg, Germany; Midlands, United Kingdom; Stavanger, Norway; Toulouse, France; Tokyo, Japan; Busan, South Korea; and Bern, Switzerland.
Velo3D has seen a steady expansion in Asia and Europe over the past two years, especially with the opening of its European Technology Centre in Augsburg in June 2022
The present scale of its operations has enabled the AM company to capitalise on the growing demand for its fully integrated metal AM solution, which combines software, hardware, and underlying manufacturing processes to simplify the 3D printing of complex, high-performance parts.
“Our 2023 tour will help engineers understand how they can incorporate 3D printing into their standard manufacturing workflows and workforces without needing extensive specialisation, like a PhD in additive manufacturing,” said Renette Youssef, Velo3D Chief Marketing Officer.
The free half-day events are intended to educate engineers on the latest advancements in metal additive manufacturing through presentations and real-world examples of companies using technology to produce their most ambitious designs.
The tour will also include eight cities across the United States.

“Last year’s events visited a few countries in Europe and Asia and focused on educating customers and prospects on the latest advancements in metal additive manufacturing. Based on the interest in and success of those shows, we’ve expanded the number of events outside of the U.S. to educate new engineers in new industries on how to achieve reproducible, predictable outcomes for scalability,” Youssef said.
