Scalable Manufacturability with 3D 

Companies are tasked with creating products in ways that lower resource consumption, waste generation, and the company’s carbon footprint. Initiatives from the C-Suite are put in place to reach carbon neutral manufacturing goals, yet even more can be addressed within the design phase. Designers have the opportunity to revolutionize their workflow for the betterment of the product, if they incorporate digital tools throughout their process.

Incorporating sustainable principles into product design can start with the tools and mediums they select to convey ideas, right through to the tools and mediums they use to communicate with manufacturing teams and factory partners. 3D-first workflows have the power to balance environmental goals with other design priorities while still delivering commercially viable products. 

Gravity Sketch CEO Oluwaseyi Sosanya will take you through how 3D tools are evolving to be more human-centric, and in turn opening up the possibilities for more sustainable products.   

The audience will learn:  

  1. How embracing a 3D-first mindset can reduce material waste  
  2. Why reducing physical sampling and factory travel to partners doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice communication  
  3. How the move to a 3D-first design mindset benefits designer, engineering teams, the company’s bottom line, and planet!
