From Design to Production:

Rethinking the Modern Manufacturing Lifecycle

ON DEMAND WEBINAR
Duration: 47 minutes​


Manufacturing is no longer defined by a single process or technology. Today’s most successful companies are choosing the right manufacturing method at the right stage of the product lifecycle, combining additive manufacturing, CNC machining, and production services to reduce risk, accelerate development, and scale with confidence.

Join Hawk Ridge Systems and A3D Manufacturing for a thought leadership event exploring how Manufacturing-as-a-Service (MaaS) and hybrid manufacturing are reshaping the way products move from concept to production.

This is not a discussion about buying equipment or choosing between additive manufacturing and traditional machining. Instead, we’ll examine how manufacturers are leveraging a flexible, lifecycle-driven approach to improve speed, reduce costs, and make better production decisions.

During this session, we’ll explore:
  • What Manufacturing-as-a-Service (MaaS) means and why it’s gaining momentum
  • How hybrid manufacturing combines additive and traditional manufacturing to optimize production
  • How to choose the right manufacturing process at each stage of the product lifecycle
  • Strategies for accelerating product development while reducing manufacturing risk
  • Real-world examples of manufacturers using flexible production workflows to improve business outcomes

This event is designed for anyone involved in product development and manufacturing, including:
  • Design Engineers
  • Manufacturing Engineers
  • Product Development Teams
  • Engineering Managers
  • Operations Leaders
  • Manufacturing Decision Makers

Whether you currently own additive manufacturing equipment, outsource production, or are simply exploring new ways to bring products to market, you’ll gain practical insights into today’s evolving manufacturing landscape.

Webinar Key Takeaways:
  • When additive manufacturing wins — and when it doesn’t
  • How to understand and apply hybrid manufacturing model to your product
  • How to follow the production lifecycle from concept through bridge production to full-scale
  • How companies like FitMyFoot and Interlink Engineering reduced cost and lead time using hybrid approaches
  • A framework for making smarter manufacturing decisions at every stage of development ​
