Additive manufacturing allows us to optimise the design in several ways, the most significant being able to create structures and geometries which are not feasibly possible with traditional manufacturing techniques. With the advancement in AM we are already seeing sensors integrated into sportswear to allow us to track movements and forces of the athlete as they perform, and with real case studies in place, and analysing this data, in-depth will enable us to design sports apparels to improve the optimisation in more areas of applications

Significant updates to SOLIDWORKS complementary packages enable designers to amplify design freedom, increase efficiency and gain competitive advantage. The collaboration strongly supports the expansion of Monotech system portfolio to develop new devices and equipment for this growing industry.AM empowers manufacturers to create products and business models never before possible through transformed workflows, and the key here is to offer each solution powered by the expertise of the company's application engineers who collaborate with customers to transform manufacturing environments.
