About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to the show, today we have a special guest who's an expert in 3D printing and sustainability. Can you tell us a bit about the course you teach, "Certified Professional in Sustainable Production using 3D Printing"? GUEST: Absolutely, this course focuses on eco-friendly 3D printing practices, additive manufacturing, sustainable materials, and lifecycle assessment. Our goal is to minimize environmental impact throughout the 3D printing process. HOST: That sounds fascinating. How did you get into this field, and what sparked your interest in sustainable 3D printing? GUEST: I started my career in traditional manufacturing, but as 3D printing technology evolved, I saw its potential for reducing waste and wanted to explore that further. It's been a rewarding journey. HOST: I can imagine. I've heard that there are some challenges when it comes to sustainable practices in 3D printing. Can you share some of those with us? GUEST: Sure, one major challenge is the limited availability and high cost of sustainable materials. Additionally, many companies lack the necessary knowledge and resources to implement eco-friendly practices. HOST: That's a great point. What trends are you seeing in the industry that might help overcome these challenges? GUEST: There's increasing demand for sustainable products and practices, which is driving innovation in materials and processes. We're also seeing more collaboration between companies, governments, and research institutions to advance sustainable 3D printing. HOST: That's encouraging. As a thought leader in this space, where do you see the future of sustainable 3D printing headed? GUEST: I believe sustainable 3D printing will become the norm rather than the exception. As the technology matures and more professionals become certified, we'll see greener, more efficient manufacturing processes across industries. HOST: Thank you for sharing your insights with us today. It's clear that your course is not only advancing careers but also contributing to a greener future. GUEST: My pleasure. I encourage anyone interested in sustainable manufacturing to explore the course and become certified. Together, we can make a difference. HOST: And that's a wrap for today's show. A big thank you to our guest for the enlightening conversation. Stay tuned for more insights into exciting industries and courses.
