FRANKFURT AM MAIN, Germany: The organisers of the Formnext 3D-printing expo and convention have named the UK as the partner country of this year’s edition. The event will take place from 17 to 20 November in Frankfurt, and some 800 exhibitors and 38,000 visitors are expected. Exhibitors are being encouraged to complete their registration by 2 March to qualify for an early bird discount. Since Formnext has previously highlighted the dental industry as an additive manufacturing success story, the organisers are likely to see continued interest from related exhibitors.
