As manufacturing demands evolve toward lighter, stronger, and more intricate designs, advanced additive manufacturing (AM) stands at the forefront of innovation. At the Global Conference on Materials Science and Advanced Manufacturing (MSAM – 2026), we spotlight the revolutionary field of 3D printing to inspire collaboration among materials scientists, engineers, industrial leaders, and technology pioneers.

Advanced Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing) for Complex Structures focuses on the latest breakthroughs that are pushing the boundaries of what is possible in design, fabrication, and application.

We invite submissions and expert talks on:

• Innovative Materials for Additive Manufacturing: Advances in metals, polymers, ceramics, composites, and bio-materials tailored for 3D printing high-performance components.

• Complex and Topology-Optimized Structures: How generative design and computational modeling enable lightweight, high-strength, and geometrically intricate structures previously impossible with traditional manufacturing.

• Multi-Material and Functionally Graded Printing: Techniques for integrating multiple materials into a single build for enhanced mechanical, electrical, and thermal functionalities.

• Additive Manufacturing in Aerospace, Automotive, and Biomedical Applications: Case studies highlighting 3D printing of critical components in industries where precision, performance, and reliability are paramount.

• Process Monitoring and Quality Control: In-situ monitoring, defect detection, and post-processing innovations to ensure consistency, repeatability, and scalability.

• Large-Scale and Hybrid Manufacturing Systems: Merging additive and subtractive techniques to produce large, complex parts with higher speed and accuracy.

• Sustainability in Additive Manufacturing: Eco-friendly materials, recycling initiatives, and energy-efficient processes shaping the future of greener manufacturing.

Whether you are developing next-generation AM materials, innovating in digital fabrication techniques, or driving industrial adoption, this session is your opportunity to present pioneering advances to a global community of experts, entrepreneurs, and visionaries.

Join us at MSAM – 2026 in Rome to redefine the future of design and manufacturing through the limitless potential of advanced additive manufacturing.
