Thanks to the confirmed participation of some of the most important international companies operating in the sector and to the many expressions of interest, PLAST 2015 (May 5-9, 2015 – Fiera Milano Rho) will feature the debut of 3D PLAST, a broad exhibition area dedicated to additive manufacturing, fast prototyping, design software, 3D printing and related technology.

“3D printing is a technology of great current interest. We find articles every day, not only in technical magazines but also in newspapers and the general media, regarding innovations and applications that were unthinkable until recently but are now possible thanks to this technology,” states Fabrizio Vanzan, fair office manager for Promaplast, the organizer of PLAST 2015.

Vanzan continues: “This technology is fascinating in many ways. All you have to do is input the file with the specifications of the product you want to make, start the print process and it’s done: one or more nozzles add material, layer by layer, to create the final form. It is an innovative production method that has already begun to supplement current plastic conversion technologies. We are very happy to host a section dedicated to additive manufacturing for the first time at PLAST.”

Given the increasing speed of development not only of technological processes but also of the materials themselves and all the innovative applications made possible, many are asking what new frontiers can be opened by 3D printing. 3D PLAST responds by featuring conferences and other events to explore this highly interesting area in greater depth and present the latest developments in the field.

According to a number of recent studies, the global 3D printing market is expected to exceed a value of 8.5 billion dollars in 2020, with average annual growth over 20%. These are absolutely compelling figures.

Interviews, videos and previews will also be made available before, during and after the fair by MACPLAS, the official magazine for PLAST 2015.
