Novastar 3D Print Demo Center | 12901 Newburgh Rd. Livonia, MI 48150
There is a common mindset that additive manufacturing is for prototyping, but certain technologies can be leveraged for bridge production and full production environments. Join us on the 27th to view live printing, hundreds of sample parts, and learn from industry experts.
After retiring from Ford, Harold has founded a consulting business, Imagine Additive Consulting, where he advises clients on strategies to implement additive processes into their manufacturing solutions. He is passionate about technology and driving efficiency from prototype to production.
The presentation will be followed by an interactive Q&A session to answer any questions that may come up during the presentation. We look forward to seeing you on the 27th!
We are pleased to announce the launch of the latest addition to the Novastar Solutions website, a comprehensive Resource Page devoted to applications of Additive Manufacturing (also called 3D printing) in the Automotive and Mobility Sector.
Our vision for the HP 3D Print for Automotive Resource Page is to provide users easy access to essential information related to Multi Jet Fusion for the automotive industry. Discover the latest technologies, best practices, and case studies on how 3D printing is shaping the future of automotive manufacturing. See examples of strong and durable plastic automotive parts printed with HP’s powder jet fusion technology. Watch webinars and see real-life applications.
We believe this page will serve as a valuable tool for professionals seeking to stay informed and up-to-date on the latest developments in the field.
Please visit https://www.novastar.net/hp-3d-print-for-automotive/ to access the resource page.

Three years ago, Gonzalez Production Systems began a competitive analysis for the right additive manufacturing to fit their needs. They considered SLM, Binder Jetting, SLA, FDM/FFF, and Multi Jet Fusion. After evaluating cost and performance attributes (stiffness, strength, precision/dimensional stability, toughness, wear, corrosion resistance, and more), the HP 5200 came out on top.
Get the inside scoop as Chief Engineer Wagon Wills discusses exactly why Gonzalez chose HP’s 5200 Series 3D printer to meet their production needs. Learn about Gonzalez’s experience with the installation of their printer and the impact of implementing this additive manufacturing technology at their facility.
Join us to see for yourself how HP Multi Jet Fusion 3D Print is transforming manufacturing.
