Prototype to Production: De-Risking Polymer Parts with CTQs, Documentation & Repeatability

June 18, 2026   3:00 – 4:00 p.m. EST
Josh Kroner, CEO/Founder, Empire Additive Solutions

This session outlines a practical, non-promotional framework for moving polymer components from early prototypes to pilot builds and production-ready processes. We will cover how to define Critical-to-Quality (CTQ) requirements, set simple acceptance criteria, and build lightweight documentation that improves traceability and reduces rework. Attendees will learn common failure modes that derail early manufacturing plus a straightforward playbook for stabilizing parts and suppliers before scaling.
