Advancing industrialisation: Binder Jetting at the forefront of a maturing sinter-based AM landscape

Binder Jetting’s accelerating progress toward industrial production set the tone at Fraunhofer IFAM’s 6^th Workshop on Sinter-based Additive Manufacturing, held on October 8-9, 2025, in Bremen, Germany. Alongside Binder Jetting, the programme highlighted advances across the wider family of sinter-based AM processes, with industry and research speakers presenting new applications, cleaner and more stable workflows, and expanding material options.

This report, by Fraunhofer IFAM’s Lea Reineke and Michael Norda, reviews the event’s key findings.
