CECIMO，机床和制造技术协会，鼓励欧洲委员会（EC）考虑“启用技术”必须在其即将到来的可持续产品计划。
一旦在第4季度2021年推出，欧盟将使欧盟更新其生态设计指令，以要求在共同市场上出售的产品提供更大的可持续性和可重复使用。就塞西莫而言，塞西莫（Cecimo）敦促其认可3D印刷的物质效率，本地生产和维修能力，以帮助欧洲公司采用更多的循环实践，从而对EC的提议做出了回应。
塞西莫（Cecimo）回应《 EC计划》的公众咨询时说：“ AM使维修和再制造更容易，更具成本效益。”“它允许按需打印备件，并更靠近需要的地方。这有助于减少库存浪费和产品的碳足迹，并延长那些需要难以获得的备件的产品的寿命。”
可持续产品计划
虽然欧盟对生态设计指令的即将发生的变化无疑将需要重大的市场变化，但并不是人体第一次在3D打印左右立法。欧盟对该技术在过去两年中不断增长的可访问性的含义引起了人们的关注，发布一项研究关于2020年的问题。
在其他领域，例如正在进行的SAM项目，该组织还支持研究与3D印刷相关培训的更多参与的研究，而Cecimo始终代表其代表的制造公司游说欧盟，以鼓励国际机构介绍“行业友好” AM法规。
More recently, the EU has sought to drive greater product sustainability within the internal market through the introduction of Ecodesign and Energy Labelling changes. Announced back in March 2021, the reforms are set to give consumers the ‘right to repair’ bought goods, and legally require manufacturers to make spares available for up to 10 years.
At the time, the changes were viewed by many in the industry as apotential opportunity for 3D printing, and with the Sustainable Product Initiative now imminent, CECIMO has taken the same view. According to the EU, its reforms will see its Ecodesign laws tweaked, and “additional legislative measures proposed,” which require products sold on its internal market to be made more sustainably.
作为一个路线图的一部分第一套在9月20日20, the initiative is set to introduce new standards for making products durable, recyclable and energy-efficient, as well as guidelines that address the presence of harmful chemicals in electronics, textiles, furniture and raw materials. Now that the reforms have passed the initial public consultation stage, they’re on-track to be adopted by the EC later this year.

In response to the EC’s public consultation, CECIMO has said that the Sustainable Product Initiative will require “considerable change” within most sectors. In order to meet any new sustainability quotas without reducing the quality, safety or strength of products produced, the group suggests that advanced technologies such as machine tooling and 3D printing could be vital to EU-based firms moving forwards.
With regards to additive manufacturing, CECIMO says that it holds particular potential to enable the “closed-loop circulation of materials,” and offers opportunities to repair products that weren’t initially designed for alteration. As a result, the manufacturers’ union has called on the EC to set sustainability requirements “on a product group-specific basis,” that doesn’t unfairly “impact the industry’s competitiveness.”
Cecimo通过为该倡议发出四个关键建议，得出结论。In addition to espousing 3D printing as “an excellent tool” for helping reach the EC’s eco-friendly objectives, the group also suggests the introduction of measures that further the roll-out of digitized inventories, which help firms reduce the waste and costs incurred by unnecessary warehousing.
Elsewhere, CECIMO has called for greater support for circular business models, and reiterated that advanced manufacturing will ultimately “play an essential role” in the EC’s repair and retrofitting reforms. To make these changes feasible, the organization recommends the introduction of tax breaks as well as voluntary rather than legal standards, that give firms time to make any changes needed.
AITA3Dand CECIMO partner-up
Alongside its response to the EC’s upcoming sustainability initiative, CECIMO has also announced a partnership with the Italian additive manufacturing associationAITA3D。Through their collaboration, the organizations effectively aim to advance the interests of the 3D printing sector at theemo米兰展览，他们打算共享一个展位。
在会议上，协会表示，他们将“联合起来促进该技术，其应用，技能和教育在该领域的活动”，这可以使他们能够吸引大量受众。在他们之间，这些团体正在举行“国际AM会议”，以与该行业的公司分享建议，并解决寻求更好地了解该技术的人。
To further the cause of 3D printing-related training, both organizations have also committed to promoting professional AM courses at EMO Milano, as well as the work of the SAM project. Describing itself as the “communication leader” in this area, CECIMO says that it will share the SAM initiative’s findings as a “blueprint for sectoral cooperation on AM skills,” at the conference which runs from October 4-9 2021.
