Description
In honor of our conference on digital manufacturing, The Digital Factory, Formlabs has created a podcast! In this series, hosted by Jon Bruner and guest host David Cranor, we’ll explore the future of the factory floor through conversations with experts who are changing the way things are made.
In episode 3, Jon and David sit down with Spencer Wright, head of product at nTopology, where he helps build software that generates specialized lattices suited for specific manufacturing constraints. Wright also authors The Prepared, a weekly newsletter covering manufacturing, engineering, and infrastructure from an accessible human perspective with as much of a focus on societal implications as on technology.
Play the full podcast to hear:
- The challenges and rewards of moving from traditional machining to metal 3D printing.
- The benefits of lattice structures and how they’re generated.
- The potential downsides of an automated future.
