  • ESIAM23: an interview with Jan Torgersen
    2024/12/27
    The interview with Yan Torgersen highlights the advantages of additive manufacturing in the energy sector. Torgersen notes that additive manufacturing uses only the material needed for printing, which reduces waste, and this is a significant benefit in the energy sector, where there is often a lot of waste. Additionally, additive manufacturing provides the geometric freedom to design transport paths inside electrochemical or electrical structures. With the advent of electrically conductive micro and nanoscale devices, additive manufacturing is considered a game changer.
