From the Editor: Another Successful ACUP
Several in-plants dropped hints that they were exploring 3D printing technologies, the first time I've heard talk of actual expansion into this new realm. That's not to say in-plants aren't interested in 3D printing; When Ken Macro, soon to take over as head of the Graphic Communication Department at California Polytechnic State University, started detailing advances in 3D printing during his keynote presentation on ACUP's second day, every ear in the room was tuned in. Most of those I quizzed later said Macro's talk on printed electronics, smart packaging and 3D printing, among other topics, was the highlight of the conference, filling them with hope for the future of printing.
