Materials Testing can provide crucial information about the following:

• Material composition; trace elements and impurities
• Measure of apparent density
• Mechanical properties and results of heat treat upgrade
• Microscopic product features
• Flaws and discontinuities
• Corrosion susceptibility

Eric Baum, Business Development Manager, said, "We had a great experience last year attending Rapid 2016 and are looking forward to this year's event in Pittsburgh. With our strong reputation and roots in the Aerospace, Automotive and Medical markets, LTI is well-equipped and positioned to grow with the technological and capacity demands of the Additive Manufacturing industry."

The Rapid + TCT Conference & Exposition will feature a three-day trade show, workshops, tech briefings, student tours and networking. The newest products, technologies, and materials in 3D printing, additive manufacturing, 3D scanning, CAD/CAE, metrology and inspection technologies will be showcased.
