Soton Cafe Sci - 3D Printing - A micro revolution
Monday 8 Jun 2015
19:00 to 21:00
Southwestern Arms, 36 Adelaide Road, St Denys Southampton
England
Join Bob at tonight's Cafe Sci in Southampton will be lead by Will Ashley, the 3D Printing Outreach Co-ordinator from Southampton University. This evenings talk will be about "3D Printing - A micro industrial revolution".
Synopsis: 3D printing or AM (Additive Manufacturing) has been touted as a new revolutionary way of production, that puts the power to manufacture bespoke items within the hands of the end-user. This talk will explore the current state of the technology and whether it can live up to the hype.
Southampton Cafe Sci meets in the upstairs room of the Southwestern Arms in Adelaide Road. The room will be available for our use for at least half an hour before the talk which starts at 7.30pm, so you can have a chat with other participants. The discussions will aim to finish around 9.00pm. Everyone will be welcome to stay around and have a chat with the speaker afterwards. Entry is by a purchase at the bar or by donation in the tin, for the venue facilities.
The format of the evening is usually a talk of 30 to 40 minutes, followed by a short break so the audience can refill their glasses, before questions and discussions about the talk. Entry is free and open to everyone, but we do encourage you to use the bar to show your support for the Upton Arms who sponsor the meeting by providing the venue.
Cafe Scientifique is a place where, for the price of a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, anyone can come to explore and debate the latest ideas in science and technology.
