Join us to explore the latest in alloys for additive manufacturing

The 2025 edition of the Alloys for Additive Manufacturing Symposium (AAMS) will take place on the beautiful Neuchâtel campus (Microcity) of the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland. Following the previous events in Düsseldorf, Zürich, Sheffield, Gothenburg, Munich, Madrid, and Paris, this 8th edition of AAMS will continue to explore the advancements at the forefront of materials science in metal additive manufacturing.

AAMS 2025 will delve into all aspects of the materials science behind AM for metals and composite materials with metallic phases. We invite contributions from experimental, theoretical, and computational researchers to explore topics such as feedstock creation and characterisation, degradation mechanisms in AM processing, in-process alloying and in situ microstructure characterisation, or post-processing techniques and resulting material properties. We especially welcome research on optimising existing alloys for AM and the innovative design of tailor-made alloys suited to AM processes.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Development of new and customized alloys for AM.
  • Exploration of novel AM methods, including multimaterial approaches and hybrid processes.
  • Engineering microstructures through AM techniques.
  • Utilization of theoretical and computational approaches for microstructure design.
  • Materials and geometry aspects of lattice structures, metamaterials, etc.

AAMS is an excellent forum for both academics and industry professionals to discuss the latest advancements and identify future research directions. We place special emphasis on supporting young researchers, offering them valuable networking opportunities within the AM community.

We look forward to welcoming you to Neuchâtel in September !
