Sigma Labs Announces Participation at Upcoming Industry Events

SANTA FE, N.M., April 04, 2018 -- Sigma Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ:SGLB) (“Sigma Labs” or the “Company”), a provider of quality assurance software under the PrintRite3D® brand, today announced that management will be participating in the following upcoming industry events:

• The Additive Manufacturing Users Group (AMUG) Conference and Exhibition, April 8-12 in St. Louis, MO (http://www.amug.com)
   
• The Rapid 2018 Conference, April 23-26 in Fort Worth, TX (http://www.rapid3devent.com)

At AMUG Mark Cola, President & CTO, will be participating as a panel member in the In-Situ Monitoring Panel Discussion which will focus on the time and cost associated with validation of the manufacturing process for aerospace quality components, which can be on the order of 15 years and $200MM. The “make and break” qualification approach is too costly. For metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) to transition to production there is a need for a rapid process qualification of metal AM components that achieves part specific performance and affordability goals. During this discussion, an In-Process Quality Assurance™ (IPQA®)-based approach is proposed that demonstrates that in-situ probabilistic sensing and routine data-capture capabilities can be transferred to the manufacturing environment to reduce qualification costs.

RAPID + TCT Exhibition and Conference provides everything you need to know about 3D technologies, all under one roof. Attendees experience hundreds of hands-on exhibits, groundbreaking product announcements, education from the industry’s most respected experts, and unparalleled networking. Sigma Labs will be exhibiting its patented PrintRite3D In Process Quality Assurance software applications. The latest release features Sigma Labs’ new and proprietary Thermal Energy Density™ (TED™) In Process Quality Metric™ (IPQM®), setting what the Company views as a new industry standard for quantitatively measuring melt pool and part quality and represents a significant step forward towards “closing the loop” in process quality monitoring and control.

Customers and investors alike are welcome meet with management at both events.
