AI Agents in Additive Manufacturing

AI Agents in Additive Manufacturing
From Days to hours - Accelerating the design and build preparation processes through agents

In this session of the Additive Manufacturing Advantage: Automotive & Mobility 2025 event, Andrew Sartorelli demonstrates how AI agents can transform additive workflows by accelerating orientation, support generation, nesting, parameter assignment, build simulation and costing. The talk begins by addressing the challenges that many teams face today, such as talent shortages, productivity pressures, skill gaps, distributed collaboration and project delays. Synera’s solution is a visual, documented workflow environment combined with an agentic layer that connects to your engineering tools and data.

You’ll see a multi-agent system in action. Powered by Synera’s integrations with leading AM software, the agents automatically retrieve build volumes, generate supports, run build simulations to check recoater interference, and produce a clear cost breakdown. The demo highlights how teams can scale expert knowledge, cut iteration time, and adapt instantly to changes.

Key Takeaways

• How agentic workflows pair LLMs with robust, transparent engineering processes
• Practical examples of agents handling messy, multi-format data while staying tool- and vendor-agnostic
• Ways to reduce bottlenecks in build prep and qualification by automating repetitive steps
• How to capture and reuse company know-how so one expert can effectively support many machines and operators
• The path from pilot to scale: spinning up more agents as demand grows without long hiring cycles
