MINSK, 12 November (BelTA) - Belarus attaches considerable attention to the development of additive technology and their implementation in various sectors of the economy, Belarusian Deputy Prime Minister Viktor Karankevich said at the 6th Leader Forum “Additive Technologies - the Reality of Technological Leadership” which is underway in Moscow these days. He made an online welcoming speech to the forum participants from Minsk, BelTA has learned.
“In modern realities, additive technologies are one of the key areas of industrial development and play a significant role in shaping the economies of the world's leading countries. Today it is difficult to find an area of production where additive technologies are not used: they are used to produce airplane parts, spacecraft parts, tools, prostheses and implants, complex parts and units of technological equipment. The most important advantage is time. When this technology is used, the process of product development and making, work on the introduction of import-substituting production and strengthening technological sovereignty is accelerated many times. Belarus pays considerable attention to the development of additive technologies and their implementation in various sectors of the economy, from industry to medicine,” Viktor Karankevich said.
This work is carried out by Belarus in cooperation with its strategic partner - Rosatom State Corporation. According to the deputy prime minister, this is one of the promising innovative areas for further mutually beneficial cooperation.
“Today's Leader Forum is an example of a successful platform for exchanging views and maintaining a professional multilateral dialogue. Based on the world's best practices and our own experience, we have the opportunity to develop effective mechanisms for identifying the most promising ideas. I am convinced that today's event will let us take a fresh look at the prospects for the development of additive technologies, taking into account global trends towards technological re-equipment and increasing their role in the development of the Union State,” Viktor Karankevich said.

Additive technologies, more commonly known as 3D printing technologies, allow any product to be manufactured layer by layer based on a 3D computer model. They are used in a wide variety of industries, including aerospace and automotive, healthcare and architecture, and consumer products. They are also used for rapid prototyping, small batch production, and customized products.
