Speakers
Rico Engelman
Business Development Manager, Aerospace Materialise
If Rico’s studies in Flight Engineering provided a broad understanding of the aerospace industry and operations in the technical, operational, legal, physical, and psychological fields, his positions at Fokker and Honeywell truly honed his knowledge of the sector. Here, he rose through roles that covered everything from flight testing to sales. As the Business Development Manager for Aerospace at Materialise, Rico uses his more than thirty years of experience to define and implement strategies that maximize the impact of AM in aerospace.
The main benefit of 3D printing for me is showing the individualized anatomy because in congenital heart disease, each anatomy is unique. And when we’re talking about operating and doing complex procedures on patients, seeing and feeling that representation on a one-to-one scale really means that we can plan the best procedure, plan the best and most appropriate surgery, and make sure we minimize our errors in judgment.

Presentation
Rapid Innovation in Aerospace with Additive Manufacturing: From Idea to Flight-Ready in 13 Months
AM is a powerful enabler of rapid innovation, and the urban air mobility sector has been quick to take notice. LIFT Aircraft, a customer of Materialise, went from idea to flying aircraft within 13 months, an unthinkable achievement with conventional product development and manufacturing. Their HEXA eVTOL aircraft features nine applications of 3D printing, with multiple parts in each application. In this presentation, Sonja Rasch, Sales Director at Materialise, explores how LIFT benefitted from the three main drivers of AM — design, speed, and flexibility — with a particular focus on the development of a critical component 3D printed in titanium.
