Additive manufacturing has moved well beyond prototyping, so where does it create the most value in MedTech and Life Sciences manufacturing?
In this conversational session, Evan Hocstein, business manager, and Tori Sears, Senior Application Engineer, from the Stratasys Medical team will share what we're seeing across the industry:
The goal is simple: an open conversation about what's working, where additive fits, and where it may not. No deep technical dive and no one-size-fits-all answer, just a practical discussion about what's working on the manufacturing floor.
Ido Bitan, Director of Product Management in Stratasys’s Medical Solutions Department, holds a B.S. in biomedical engineering from Ben-Gurion University. He began in startup R&D, helping develop cancer-detection equipment for surgeons. At Stratasys, he helped create the Digital Anatomy Printer and Creator, advancing medical innovation and patient outcomes globally.
Tori is a Senior Medical Segment Application Engineer at Stratasys, where she supports the advancement of Stratasys’ additive manufacturing technologies across the medical space by partnering with clinical, research, and industry stakeholders to drive adoption of 3D printing solutions in healthcare. Previously, she served as a Senior Engineer in the Anatomic Modeling Unit (AMU) at Mayo Clinic. In this role, she supported a broad range of surgical and clinical specialties and collaborated directly with physicians and radiologists to design and deliver 3D printed anatomic models and patient-specific devices. She holds both a Bachelor of Science and Master of Science in Bioengineering from the University of Michigan, where her graduate research focused on bioink development for 3D printing.

Do you think your application is right for additive manufacturing? Which process and material are right for the job?
In this session Allison Harbaugh, Business Manager, and Ken Postel, Application Engineer, from the Stratasys Medical team will provide a practical way to evaluate additive manufacturing technologies and materials based on application requirements, understanding the trade-offs, asking the right questions, and making more informed process and material decisions.
The goal is simple: You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of how to evaluate additive manufacturing options by asking the right questions, assessing your application and facility requirements, and considering the full investment beyond the printer itself.
Allison Harbaugh, Medical Business Manager at Stratasys, helps medical device companies implement additive manufacturing for production, fixturing, and prototyping. She leverages a mechanical engineering background and manufacturing experience to streamline development, reduce costs, and expand design capabilities. Allison is passionate about supporting healthcare professionals as they bring new ideas to life and raise the standard of care across the medical sector.
Ken is a Medical Segment Applications Engineer at Stratasys, specializing in helping medical device manufacturers and point-of-care organizations adopt and implement additive manufacturing technologies. He brings experience in traditional metal manufacturing, aerospace and defense production, additive manufacturing, and medical 3D printing applications.

A successful application is one thing. Moving it into a controlled, repeatable production environment is another. What questions should you be asking before making that transition?
In this practical session, the Stratasys Medical team will explore the questions and considerations that come into play when moving an additive application from design freeze toward production—from validation and design transfer to process control, repeatability, and manufacturing readiness.
The goal is simple: help you understand the questions to ask and the considerations to evaluate when moving an additive application toward production—so engineering, manufacturing, quality, and other stakeholders can make informed decisions together.
Andrew Carter is the Manager of Manufacturing Engineering at Stratasys Direct Manufacturing, where he leads a team of engineers focused on advancing production processes and scaling high-performance additive manufacturing applications. He is responsible for driving alignment between engineering, fulfillment, maintenance, and quality teams—ensuring efficient, validated, and production-ready AM workflows across Stratasys Direct’s range of technologies, which includes FDM™, PolyJet, SAF®, SLS, P3™ DLP, SLA, and MJF. Andrew’s expertise spans process development, capability analysis, and operational improvement, with a current emphasis on implementing an IQPQ (Installation Qualification, Performance Qualification) framework to standardize manufacturing readiness across Stratasys Direct’s facilities. Earlier in his career, he led over $1.25 million in successful government-funded R&D programs to explore new AM materials and applications. He holds a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Colorado Boulder and a Bachelor of Science from Boston University.
