Product 02 · Practical Knowledge Exchange
The technical exchange between annual events.
Addidex Community is a practitioner-led discussion forum for troubleshooting toolpaths, discussing machine kinematics, sharing post-processors, and publishing material findings.
Practitioner Knowledge NetworkPeer-to-Peer Solutions · Zero Marketing Spam
Discussion Areas
Curated Technical Channels
Categorized around the robotic AM production workflow to keep signal high and commercial noise out.
Design & Toolpaths
Rhino, Grasshopper, Blender, non-planar slicing, and multi-axis kinematics.
Robots, Extruders & CAM
Industrial arm controllers, pellet feed systems, and software integrations.
Materials & Extrusion
Recycled polymers, bio-fillers, concrete rheology, and thermal behavior.
Production & Validation
Layer bonding tests, cell safety, repeatability, and part certification.
Addidex Connect (Haarlem & Valencia)
Follow-up questions from talks, speaker discussions, and event logistics.
Community Culture
High Signal, Honest Collaboration
What we encourage:
- Sharing toolpath algorithms, Grasshopper scripts, and slicing math.
- Documenting failed prints, thermal warping issues, and layer delamination.
- Comparing robot kinematic controllers, inverse kinematics, and ROS2 packages.
- Constructive technical feedback on published research papers.
What we moderate out:
- ✕Generic marketing spam, unrequested sales pitches, or promotional blast messages.
- ✕Speculative AI renders masquerading as manufactured physical parts.
- ✕Disrespectful commentary or personal attacks during technical debates.
