Episode 112: Merging 3D Printing and SPS

from Materialism: A Materials Science Podcast

3D printing and SPS(Spark Plasma Sintering) are two incredible techniques that are best suited for different purposes, but what if there was a way to combine them to open up a whole new world of possibilities. We sit down with Christopher Melnyk, Director of Business Development at CalNano to talk about how they are achieving this combination. We explore the different parts that make up this new hybrid approach as well as the possible use cases that exist. This episode was Sponsored by California Nanotechnologies.
