Today Mac Cameron of the design engineering firm Zmach speaks with us about why the combination of machine learning—driven design with 3D printing techniques is the future; how additive manufacturing can scale up to compete with traditional production methods; and how the factories of the future will transform learning, jobs, and economies.
Mac Cameron is the founder and CEO of Zmach, a design engineering firm with deep roots in 3D printing and product design. He is a former application engineer at Stratasys, a global leader in 3D printing and additive solutions, and has 3D-printed thousands of parts using FDM and Polyjet technology. He earned a physics degree from the University of Minnesota, where he founded the first 3D printing class and a project-building student group, Tesla Works. Mac currently teaches Introduction to Making and Design for 3D-Printing at MIT.
