Wrapping up 2022 with two in-depth video podcasts

 
Video Podcast #1

Podcast1AM Voices chats with our Founder and President of Elementum3D, Dr Jacob Nuechterlein and Director of Business Development, Alex Janzen. They speak about current expansion and how our materials aid in the advancement of 3D printed production parts and groundbreaking applications.

TOPICS INCLUDE:

  • Rhenium material development (DARPA funded) update
  • Hypersonic – nickel alloys
  • Metal matrix composites – ODS materials
  • Heat exchanger applications
  • NASA to F1 racing and beyond
Video Podcast #2

Podcast2Quintus Technologies’ “Tech Talk” features Jeremy Iten, Chief Technology Officer of Elementum. This video podcast covers our novel Reactive Additive Manufacturing (RAM) technology and the impact it is having on advancing 3D printed metallic structures.

TOPICS INCLUDE:

  • Elementum 3D’s patented RAM technology explained
  • Challenges and solutions of printing desirable materials
  • Optimization of traditional AM materials
  • Hot isostatic process (HIP) advantages
  • What’s next?

Dr. Douglas Hoffman

Senior Research Scientist (SRS)/ Principal Section Technologist NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory

Dr. Douglas Hofmann is a Senior Research Scientist and Principal at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, where he serves as the Section Technologist for the Mechanical Fabrication and Test Section. He is also a Lecturer and Visiting Associate at Caltech in the Applied Physics and Materials Science Department. Dr. Hofmann founded JPL’s Metallurgy Facility in 2010, was a charter member of the Materials Development and Manufacturing Technology Group, and helped establish the JPL Additive Manufacturing Center. He is the Principal Investigator of the NASA FAMIS Flight Experiment and was a 2012 recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers from President Obama. He has spent more than 12 years working in metal additive manufacturing and has over 30 granted patents and over 60 peer-reviewed publications.

Dr. Jacob Nuechterlein

President/Founder Elementum 3D

Dr. Jacob Nuechterlein is the founder and president of Elementum 3D in Erie, CO. He earned his Bachelor of Engineering, Master of Science, and Doctor of Philosophy at the Colorado School of Mines. Jacob has been researching, teaching, or consulting on topics such as casting and powder metallurgy for the last 14 years. Elementum 3D’s work with powder bed laser additive manufacturing is based on these principles. In addition, is thesis work in thermodynamics and formation kinetics of metal matrix composites is directly related to all 3D printing processes.
