Brian Douglass, DI Labs COO & Carl Douglass P.E., DI Labs CEO

In this excerpt from the Solutionology Podcast Episode #13, Brian and Carl dive into the topic of what it really takes to successfully onboard new additive technologies and build a digital workflow to support quality and consistency. Additive is an industrial manufacturing process just like injection molding with a wide spectrum of variables to manage, many of which come as a surprise to new adopters.
