Dear Students, On 8 November
2024, the Singapore Centre for 3D Printing (SC3DP) celebrated its 10th
Anniversary with an Open House and Gala Dinner, marking a decade of
pioneering innovation and impactful collaborations. The Open House showcased
SC3DP’s achievements and transformative contributions to additive
manufacturing, setting the stage for a future of continued leadership and
impact in the field. It allowed us to share recent advancements in additive
manufacturing (e.g. glass printing, multi-material and functionally graded
structures, tissue/organ printing, food printing, concrete printing,
electronic printing, printing in space, smart and sustainable manufacturing,
process digital twins) and ongoing industry collaborations. The event
included self-guided lab tours, short seminars and exhibitions from leading
companies such as 3D MakerPro, AddUp,
Anton Paar, CES_InnovFab, Cetim-Matcor,
Chemtron, CNC Design, Eye-2-Eye, Farsoon, Hexagon, HIPEX, Maha Chem, Makino, Malvern Panalytical, Nano Dimension, Obayashi, ST Engineering and
ZRapid. The event was attended by around 500
visitors, including members of the public, NTU affiliates and industries.
On the same day,
we hosted members of the Singapore diplomatic corps for an exclusive
presentation and tour of our cutting-edge 3D printing research facilities.
The delegation included Mr Allen Irwin, Economic Officer, US Embassy; Ms
Kavitha Mathuvay, Minister (Economic), High
Commission of Malaysia; Mr Joël Henri Brunner, Science Counselor,
Embassy of Switzerland; and other senior representatives from the embassies
of Mexico, Denmark, Japan and Ireland.
Finally, SC3DP
was honoured with the 'Excellence in Additive Manufacturing Talent
Development' award by ASTM International, recognising a decade of outstanding
contributions to nurturing and shaping the next generation of talent in the
additive manufacturing industry, both in Singapore and beyond. If you are interested in additive manufacturing, now
is an exciting time to explore a career in this dynamic field. You too, could
be part of these groundbreaking changes that impacts patient care and
technological advancements! Follow SC3DP and NAMIC
