Interface Matters - Surfaces, Engineering and Culture with Matthias Hirsch and Olivier Messé: Recent Episodes
The Surfineers
Interface Matters is the refreshing take on current trends in the manufacturing industry. Each episodes discusses with leaders in the manufacturing & surface engineering industry and hosts delving into the current topics on news, technical, marketing and the psychology of working in the engineering industries.
Today we take on the topic of Additive Manufacturing and very specifically the road to success.Just saying an application should be printed isn't going to make it the best, cheapest and most effective solution and instead we need to evaluate if the AM process chain serves the right application, with the right number of components and correct properties to achieve its performance. We delve into metal AM and cast some light on the intricacies and complexities of building business cases in an AM industry - from powder to printing and surface finishing.

ABOUT FORMNEXT
As the leading industry platform for Additive Manufacturing and industrial 3D Printing, Formnext is the international meeting point for the next generation of intelligent industrial production. In Frankfurt am Main as well as digitally.
For four days, Formnext 2022 turned host city Frankfurt into the global capital of industrial 3D printing. And this year’s exhibition was very much in tune with the times. As the coronavirus pandemic continues and new political and economic challenges emerge as a result, additive manufacturing can play a key role in decentralizing manufacturing processes and production, making supply chains more resilient, and facilitating resource and energy efficient production in order to get innovative new products onto the market faster.
ABOUT TEXTURE JET
Established in 2019, TextureJet is delivering a tooling platform with world leading capability to selectively change the surface texture of components, resulting in streamlined production lines.
Offering an attractive alternative to existing technologies for roughening or etching of surfaces leading to reductions in factory and toxic footprint and operational costs. Our end to end solution for surface texturing delivers both off-the-shelf as well as bespoke machine tools, which can be developed on-site in collaboration with OEMs.

In this episode, we're asking the important question: Is Surface Engineering Dead?
This is the teaser episode - a bit shorter than usual - where the hosts introduce the topic of surface engineering and as the difficult question: Is surface engineering dead? And how does this set the basis for the upcoming podcast: Interface Matters, where the hosts will take you on a ride through the world of manufacturing, its psychology and where boundaries lie.
