6K Additive is roaring ahead with a recycling solution for metals. Their path from scrap to powder is helping the US to be more resilient, produce powder locally and perhaps be more cost effective and sustainable as well. But, what does 6K want to do? Where is it headed? What does it want to accomplish? How does it’s process stack up to others? And how will it go about it? Frank here talks us through their strategy, goals, plants, capacity, operations and the future role 6K wants to play at the core of the US defense and industry.

When aircrafts are lighter, they use less fuel and are easier to maintain. That's why major airline manufacturers are increasingly using titanium and carbon in their construction.   Norsk Titanium is the only high deposition rate additive manufacturing company that is FAA-approved and OEM-qualified for structural titanium parts—and their wire-based manufacturing process reduces material waste by up to 50%.   Listen in as we sit down with Philip Riegler, Product Quality Manager, to explore how additive manufacturing is transforming aerospace production, from lightweight titanium structural components to large-format printed parts for commercial and defense aircraft.   From serial production programs with Airbus and Boeing to future applications in aerospace, defense, and space, this conversation dives into the realities of certifying 3D-printed flight hardware, scaling additive manufacturing globally, and why titanium supply chain pressures are pushing the industry toward a new era of production.   We'd love to hear from you.

Phosphate additives are commonly used in processed and convenience foods, yet many patients and healthcare professionals remain unaware of how significantly they contribute to phosphorus burden in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Elevated phosphorus levels can negatively impact bone, cardiovascular, and overall kidney health, making phosphorus management an important aspect of kidney care. In this episode of Kidney Commute, an interprofessional panel featuring a nephrologist, dietitian, policy expert, and patient advocate discusses the clinical impact of phosphate additives, the differences between naturally occurring phosphorus and additive-based phosphorus, and the practical challenges patients face when trying to identify hidden phosphorus sources in foods and medications. The discussion also explores socioeconomic barriers, food labeling limitations, and ongoing policy and advocacy efforts aimed at improving phosphorus transparency and patient education. Listeners will gain practical strategies and insights to better support phosphorus management in clinical practice and daily life.

On Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg, Dani speaks with Nicholas Enrich for Part 3 of Food Tank's series exploring the far-reaching impacts of dismantling the U.S. Agency for International Development.

What if the future of your machine shop isn't just faster spindles or more automation—but an entirely different way of making parts? In this episode of MakingChips: Generation CNC, we sit down with David Bamforth of Renscott Manufacturing, a young entrepreneur who's not just building a shop—he's redefining what one can be. By combining CNC machining with metal additive manufacturing, David has positioned his company at the intersection of two worlds, creating a powerful competitive edge in aerospace, defense, and spaceflight. But this didn't start with a master plan. Like many entrepreneurs, David began with curiosity, a willingness to take risks, and a mindset of figuring things out as he went. Over time, that evolved into something much more intentional: a clear strategy to move beyond being "just another job shop" and instead own the full lifecycle of complex parts—from printed blank to finished, mission-critical component. What makes this approach so compelling is the problem it solves. Many companies can print parts. Many shops can machine them. But very few can do both well. Even fewer understand how to bridge the gap between the two. That's where Renscott has carved out its niche, simplifying supply chains, improving reliability, and creating real value for customers operating at the cutting edge. If you've been thinking about how to differentiate your shop—or where the industry is heading next—this episode offers a clear look at why additive manufacturing isn't just a trend. For shops willing to embrace it, it's a strategic advantage.

Fabian Alefeld hosts Pan Michaleris, founder of PanOptimization (PanX), and Erik Denlinger, co-founder and chief engineer, to discuss the evolution and role of simulation and finite element analysis (FEA) in additive manufacturing. Pan shares his background as a Penn State professor and entrepreneur (including a prior company acquired by Autodesk) and explains how simulation helps reduce costly trial-and-error builds by predicting distortion, temperature, stress, buckling, cracking, and recoater risks, while moving toward closed-loop manufacturing-to-design workflows and property prediction. Erik outlines PanX's commercial capabilities - fast thermo-mechanical simulation for very large parts, distortion compensation, and dwell-time optimization - and describes proof-of-concept work on controlling melt quality and hardness via parameter modulation. They cover adoption in aerospace/defense and new space, qualification implications, integration with build-prep workflows (e.g., EOS/Velosis), and cautious, validation-focused views on AI surrogate models.00:00 Welcome and Episode Preview01:13 Meet Pan and Erik01:59 Pan's Journey to PanX03:59 Erik's Origin Story05:10 FEA History and the Elephant Test08:32 Why Additive Needs Simulation10:23 Closing the Design Manufacturing Loop14:33 PanX Today Core Capabilities17:30 From Distortion to Material Properties20:25 Making Simulation Usable for Engineers27:06 Workflow Integration and Automation29:44 From Failures to Design30:41 Who Uses PanX Today32:41 Simulation for Qualification35:17 Layerwise Parameter Control38:51 Why FEA Is Hard41:38 AI and Surrogate Models46:53 Future Material Tailoring48:37 Roadmap Workflow Integration52:27 Closing Thoughts and Wrap

On this episode, Marty Johnson, VP of Product and Technical Fellow at 3D Systems, joins the show to take a clear-eyed look at additive manufacturing materials—what they can do, what they can't, and what engineers should realistically expect when composites and filled materials enter the 3D-printing conversation. The post 268: 3D Printing Boundaries – What Additive Manufacturing Can and Can't Do first appeared on Cast Polymer Radio.

Brian Hiatt started Dry Mountain unintentionally to disrupt the outdoor industry through additive manufacturing. He's solving real problems through small-batch production in an industry that hasn't truly innovated in decades. Growing up in a farming community in Utah and working as a handyman taught him to get creative and solve problems instead of waiting for someone else to do it. His mission goes beyond selling products he wants to onshore manufacturing, educate people about why public lands matter, and prove you can create quality gear in America at prices people will actually pay. We talk about how new technology can actually work with old traditions, why consumers need to be reeducated on price versus value when you're paying for better quality, and what he's building that could change how people think about outdoor gear.Highlights:Why real innovation in the outdoor industry stopped decades ago and got replaced by iteration and drop-shipping based on marketing metrics.How additive manufacturing and small-batch production make onshoring possible without requiring massive capital investment.The importance of believing in your product enough to be your own biggest customer before expecting anyone else to buy it.Why never stopping learning and asking questions that lead to more questions is the only way to actually solve problems.How YouTube University and self-teaching through trial and error beats traditional. education for people with ADHD and hands-on learning styles.Make sure to subscribe to Blue Collar BS where we explore how different generations approach work, leadership, and building careers in the trades.

The Wonderful World of Wine (WWW) Episode 313 Hosts Kim Simone and Mark Lenzi exploring all things wine with you! Decoding the Wine Label with Marie Cheslik Ever feel like you need a PhD and a Rosetta Stone just to pick a decent bottle of Cabernet? You aren't alone. This week on The Wonderful World of Wine(WWW), Kim and Mark sit down with Marie Cheslik, the brilliant sommelier and author behind the essential new book, “How to Read a Wine Label.” Marie isn't your average wine expert—she's a nurse and Sommelier who uses a stethoscope and corkscrew. We dive deep into the surprising parallels between the ICU and the cellar, proving that wine doesn't have to be intimidating; it just needs a little "triage."

The manufacturing industry is transitioning into a new era of additive implementation, from massive automotive-scale builds to ultra-precise micro 3D printing. We dive into the evolving landscape of this technology in our preview of the April 2026 edition of Manufacturing Engineering and Technology, just ahead of RAPID + TCT 2026. 

In a recent issue of The Tequila Report, more than 130 Tequila brands identify as additive-free. So how do those brands distinguish from one another? What else matters to discerning consumers? Tequila Report pubisher Jay Baer and I try to figure that out in this episode of Agave Road Trip!Agave Road Trip is a critically acclaimed, award-winning podcast that helps gringx bartenders better understand agave, agave spirits, and rural Mexico.

Want to simplify production and scale with confidence? Check it out at rollanddga.com/elevate. Live from LMT Lab Day Chicago, Elvis and Barb bring the mics to the Ivoclar stage for three very different conversations that all point to one big theme—this industry is evolving fast, and you better evolve with it. First up, Savannah Elkins and Josh Williams from GPS Digital RPD jump into the digital removable world, where analog roots meet full-on additive workflows. Savannah shares how she went from pouring models to cranking out 100+ RPD frameworks a day, learning design in record time through hands-on training and a little “YouTube University.” The conversation dives into printed frameworks, flexible materials, and the push toward becoming a full lab-to-lab removable resource. It's fast, it's scalable, and yes… they absolutely test durability by throwing, stepping on, and possibly feeding things to alligators. Next, Darin McCue from SalesLift Consulting flips the script and talks about what's really holding labs back—and it's not production. With a mix of passion and hard truth, Darin explains that most lab owners aren't failing because they can't make teeth—they're failing because they don't run a business. From leadership and communication to sales and team culture, he challenges owners to step off the bench and into a leadership role before burnout or failure forces the issue. His message is clear: if you don't work on your business, it will eventually work against you. Finally, Vicki Thomas and Carrie Ling bring a completely different energy, focused on community, collaboration, and leveling the playing field for smaller labs. Vicki shares the story behind launching Savvy Lab Solutions, a buying group built to give small and mid-sized labs access to the same pricing and vendor relationships as the big players. Carrie backs it up with real-world experience, explaining how vendors now proactively reach out with discounts and new products—saving time, money, and opening doors she didn't even know existed. The conversation highlights the power of partnerships, word-of-mouth growth, and the realization that 78% of the industry is made up of labs that have historically been overlooked.

Host Fabian Alefeld interviews Erin Mastroni, President and founder of I3D Manufacturing (founded 2013), about building one of the largest additive-focused contract manufacturers and the industry's shift from prototyping to production. Mastroni describes moving from fashion retail and trend forecasting to an MBA in sustainable business, spotting production AM as a key trend, and launching a metal powder bed fusion business in Oregon with limited traditional manufacturing experience. She recounts early funding challenges, using SBA/New Market Tax Credits, and landing Blue Origin as an early customer, which helped establish I3D as a fast-moving development partner known for tackling difficult materials like titanium and new nickel alloys with EOS. I3D grew from 5 people and two machines to two campuses, ~30 machines, and 54 employees, is launching an internal “I3D Academy,” navigated a severe COVID revenue drop without layoffs, and was acquired in 2023 by BTX Precision (L Squared Partners), expanding into turnkey CNC and broader capabilities while discussing PE's role, production scalability, and emerging AI opportunities.00:00 Podcast welcome01:47 Fashion to additive04:27 Funding and mission06:52 Blue Origin breakthrough08:27 Becoming a dev partner12:19 I3D today scale15:29 Growing talent academy17:05 Growth phases and pandemic20:22 Acquisition and turnkey expansion22:06 Private equity tipping point27:43 Private Equity Momentum28:41 Flow Driven Applications32:54 Supply Chain Use Cases35:12 Scaling Production Know How40:21 One Stop Shop Strategy43:14 Customers Get Smarter47:31 Next Wave Breakthroughs53:03 AI In Additive Manufacturing57:25 Closing Thanks

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Most agency owners say they want to sell someday… but they're building something completely unsellable. The mistake? Not only a lack of a clear vision for the future of their agency, but also a lack of understanding of what they'll need to build a sellable agency. If you're an agency owner planning to sell one day, do you understand what buyers are usually looking for? Do you know which type of buyer you're hoping to attract? Today's featured guest understands that most agencies are acquired by private equity and built the private equity partner he felt was missing in the space. He'll talk about what actually drives valuation, what kills deals, and how to build an agency that buyers want to compete for. Ben Gaddis is the former founder of T3, a digital agency he sold to private equity in 2019. After going through multiple acquisitions himself, he now runs an operator-led private equity firm focused exclusively on tech-enabled service and agency businesses. As a former owner who's been on both sides of the table, he knows exactly what buyers are thinking. In this episode, we'll discuss: What are private equity companies looking for in agencies? Recurring revenue vs. retention What would actually increase your agency's valuation? If the goal is talent, should you consider an acquisition?

What Private Equity Actually Looks For (It's Not What You Think) The reality is that most private equity companies are looking to buy a couple of agencies to slam them together and eventually sell them for more. Based on this, agency owners have an idea of what these buyers want and mostly focus on revenue or EBITDA. According to Ben, however, buyers are looking at a few core things first: Client concentration Recurring or predictable revenue Net revenue retention Founder dependency (aka key-person risk) Clear vision and differentiation Let's start with client concentration. A lot of owners panic if one client makes up 20% of revenue. Some PE firms get nervous at 10%. But Ben brings nuance here. If you've landed and retained a $2–3M client for years, that's proof you can serve at a high level. That's powerful. The issue isn't just one big client. It's when your top 3–5 clients make up 50–60% of revenue. That's where it gets risky. If you're in that position, you already feel it. One bad email. One procurement shift. One budget freeze. And your stomach drops. That's not a valuation problem. That's a freedom problem. Recurring Revenue vs. Retention (The Smarter Metric) Everyone argues about contracts. "Should I lock clients into 12 months?" "Should we go month-to-month?" Ben argues that the real metric is net revenue retention. If you're at 90–100%+ retention, buyers don't care as much about contract length. He shared a case where they bought a company with almost zero recurring revenue but 115% net revenue retention. Clients kept buying more. The business was healthy. The packaging just needed to change. This is huge for agencies stuck in custom project hell. Sometimes it's not your service. It's how you position and sell it. Are you framing projects as standalone deliverables or as phases in a longer journey? If you're stuck working in the business and scrambling for the next sale, this is where to look first. Integration > Financial Engineering There are two types of buyers: Financial engineers smashing agencies together to increase multiples Operator-led firms building real integrated offerings Ben sees a lot of "fake integration." Agencies get acquired, but nothing truly connects. No shared systems. No real cross-sell. No operational synergy. Sophisticated buyers see through that immediately. What actually increases valuation? Additive capability. Does one service naturally lead to another? Does it solve a deeper problem for the same buyer? Does it expand wallet share within the same account? If you're thinking about acquisitions, don't buy revenue. Buy strategic fit. Otherwise, you're just running two companies under one logo. Growing Through Acquisition (And When Not To) A lot of 7-figure agency owners hit a wall where they can't hire fast enough and start to feel overwhelmed. The team depends on them. Growth feels capped. So they think: "Maybe I should acquire" and figure they should start small, as it seems easier than going through a big acquisition. Buying a bigger company or doing a merger of equals is certainly complicated in terms of defining who's in charge and which brand should remain. So, it should be a very complementary offer with a clear leader for it to make sense. This would be much clearer when buying a smaller business. However, here's the thing: Small acquisitions are just as hard as big ones. The legal, the integration, the emotional complexity, it's all real. If you've never done one before, the odds of it going smoothly are low. If the goal is talent… why not build offshore first? With AI and real-time translation tools, the global talent pool is radically more accessible than it was even five years ago. A lot of agency owners avoid offshore because it failed before. But the game has changed. If your bottleneck is hiring, you might not need to buy an agency. You might need to rethink your talent strategy. How to Prepare for a Sale (Even If You're Not Selling) This is where most deals fall apart, and Ben believes it's important for owners to try to cover any gaps in knowledge. Try to learn as much as you can about the process and the buyer to better understand their expectations. And if you still have questions, then don't hesitate to ask! Some aspects that owners may not understand and that you should start learning about: Working capital expectations Accrual vs. cash accounting Quality of Earnings (QofE) reviews Data cleanliness Revenue tagging Furthermore, Ben recommends something most owners never do: Run your own QofE before going to market. Know your skeletons. Track secured revenue. At the start of each year, how much revenue is already locked in? If that number consistently grows year over year, that's powerful. Buyers will ask about revenue by capability, revenue by sales rep, revenue by region, and client concentration by top 3/5/10. If your data is messy, you lose leverage. And if you're thinking, "I'll figure that out when I'm ready to sell," you're already behind. Vision Is the Real Multiplier Right now, Ben is seeing a lack of vision + execution alignment. AI is reshaping agency models in real time. Entire categories of services didn't exist a few months ago. The agencies that win won't just be efficient. They'll have a tight, clear, communicated vision. Agencies won't scale just because of a tactic. They'll scale because the vision was clear enough that the team could make decisions without the owner. If your team can't make decisions without you, that's not a people problem. That's a vision problem. And that's also why you're still stuck in fulfillment. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset? Looking to dig deeper into your agency's potential?

The founders of Hershey, Good Humor, Stouffer, Heinz, Kellogg, Kraft, and Birdseye, among others, were pioneers looking to bring clean, hygienic, healthy, and trustworthy products to a market saturated with the opposite. Each specialized in a product, be in chocolate, ice cream, prepared meals, ketchup, cereal, cheese, or frozen foods. Recently we have learned that the grandson of the inventor of Reeses's Peanut Butter cups, owned by Hershey today, has accused the company of destroying the original product, changing "milk chocolate" and "peanut butter" to substances that mirror them. Whereas Milton Hershey sourced fresh milk and used minimal ingredients, modern Hershey products are anything but fresh or even what the label implies. Also, at least 111 substances of unknown safety have been added to foods, drinks and supplements sold in the United States without alerting the US Food and Drug Administration, a new investigation found. This is on top of the exposure that has recently been brought to American foods in general, from food coloring to preservatives - leading companies to change their ingredient lists with a promise of never again lying to consumers. What were companies that attempted to bring purity to a contaminated marketplace, largely resulting from overcrowded cities, has turned ironically into the very thing that they were formed to fight. Now under "trusted brands" the foods that poisons Americans a century ago have made a reemergence.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Episode Overview How many insurance organizations have launched an AI pilot, watched it work in the lab, and then watched it quietly disappear in production? Today we're dismantling the myth that AI adoption is a technology problem—and making the case that it's a workflow problem. Guest Jake Sloan, VP of Global Insurance at Appian, is an operator first. He has run large-scale insurance operations, owned a $150M P&L, and delivered transformations that only happen when you understand how work actually moves—handoffs, exceptions, controls, and accountability. At Appian, he leads the insurance vertical for a process automation and low-code platform focused on claims, underwriting, and operational process orchestration. Key Topics • Pilot Purgatory: Why 90% of AI Projects Stall — Pilots work in controlled environments. Then reality hits: no data pipeline, no workflow integration, no governance, no frontline buy-in. Organizational alignment—not technology—is the breaking point. • The Orchestration Layer — Appian's core thesis: build an orchestration layer first. It sits between your legacy monolith and the next chapter. Additive, keeps work flowing during transformation, and creates the foundation where AI and automation actually stick. • Email as Infrastructure — Underwriters spend 40%+ of their day in inboxes. The AI mailbox use case embeds AI into a workflow that extracts data, routes work, makes decisions, and triggers actions. Underwriters gain 2–3 hours a day back. • Claims Velocity: Days to Hours — One global insurer went from 24–72 hours (FNOL to assignment) to minutes. Digital intake feeds orchestrated workflows. AI triages, categorizes severity, flags fraud risk. The adjuster gets a complete, pre-organized package. • Alignment = Culture, Not Just Tech — Appian's workshops put business, IT, data, and operations in one room to design the ideal state and work backward. Underwriters don't get replaced—they become superhuman. Admin work gets stripped away. • The Talent Problem Is a Workflow Problem — Entry-level insurance work is repetitive email categorization. When AI handles the mundane, these jobs become analytical and attractive again. The organizations winning reskill existing teams and position domain expertise as more valuable. • The 90-Day Deployment Mindset — Pick one workflow. Build the orchestration layer. Plug in AI. Show ROI in 90 days. Then iterate. Key Quotes -"When you go to scale it, it's like, well, we don't have the data pipeline. We don't have the workflow. We don't have the governance. We don't have the buy-in from the frontline team. And so it just stalls." -"It's not about the AI itself. It's about the workflow that the AI sits inside." -"We're not here to replace underwriters. We're here to make them superhuman." -"Get started. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good. Start with a use case, build the orchestration layer, plug AI into it, show value in 90 days."

Fabian Alefeld hosts Duann Scott on the Editor Snack podcast to discuss how AI is evolving in additive manufacturing, moving from “AI-washing” and impractical text-to-mesh hype toward more capable tools using language models, visual language models, surrogate models, and emerging foundational models. Scott describes testing tools by trying to make them fail and highlights a recent success with the Raven plugin for Rhino/Grasshopper, which generated a parametric VESA mount and tripod adapter from minimal prompts, then iteratively added fillets and an isogrid structure and produced a printable part within hours. They discuss constraints like missing engineering training data and design intent, the promise of AI for toolpath and process optimization (including transfer of parameter knowledge across materials), and the role of the 3MF format in capturing toolpath and metadata to enable richer, searchable datasets. Scott previews CDFAM events in Barcelona, DC, and Tokyo and emphasizes that progress requires significant data work and investment.  00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 02:18 AI Hype to Real Progress 04:13 Testing AI Design Tools 04:46 Data Gaps and Design Intent 07:15 Two Paths for AI Design 10:15 Raven Grasshopper Breakthrough 13:17 Pushing Parametric Complexity 20:28 Limits of Black Box Optimization 22:40 Toolpath and Material Transfer 26:18 Alloy Discovery and Qualification 28:05 3MF Role Teaser 28:18 3MF Format Overview 29:17 Smarter Toolpath Extensions 32:31 Metadata for AI Training 35:43 Data Ownership and Synthetic Data 39:59 AI Impact on Additive 44:10 Workforce and Reshoring 47:22 What Is CDFAM 49:49 CDFAM Audience and Format 51:43 DC Event and Government 54:05 Wrap Up and Thanks

Eating five or more servings of ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) a day nearly doubles your risk of developing Crohn's disease Additives like emulsifiers, thickeners, and artificial sweeteners found in ultraprocessed foods break down the gut's protective mucus barrier and fuel chronic inflammation High intake of UPFs is linked to changes in gut bacteria that reduce diversity and promote the growth of harmful strains associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) flare-ups Common UPFs like white bread, frozen meals, sauces, and breakfast cereals show the strongest links to increased Crohn's risk Removing seed oils, emulsifiers, and UPF-heavy meals while focusing on gut-repairing whole foods can help reduce flare frequency and support long-term healing
