About This Course

The targeted sector for Direct Deposition 3D Printing for Manufacturing and Remanufacturing can include various industries such as automotive, aerospace, healthcare, consumer goods, and industrial equipment. These sectors have specific background and needs when it comes to training in this technology.

Background:
Traditionally, manufacturing and remanufacturing processes have relied on subtractive manufacturing methods like milling, turning, and cutting, which involve removing material from a solid block to create a desired shape. However, these processes can be time-consuming, wasteful, and limited in terms of design complexity.

Direct deposition 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, offers an alternative approach by building objects layer by layer using materials such as plastics, metals, or composites. This technology allows for greater design freedom, reduced material waste, improved customization, and the ability to manufacture complex geometries that are challenging to achieve through traditional methods.

Needs for Training:

Technical Understanding: Professionals in the targeted sectors need training to understand the principles, capabilities, and limitations of direct deposition 3D printing. This includes knowledge about different 3D printing technologies, materials, printing parameters, and post-processing techniques.

Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM): Designing for additive manufacturing requires a different mindset compared to traditional manufacturing. Training should focus on teaching engineers and designers how to optimize designs for 3D printing, considering factors like support structures, part orientation, material properties, and manufacturing constraints.

Material Selection: Different materials offer unique properties and characteristics when used in direct deposition 3D printing. Training should cover the selection criteria for various applications, including strength, durability, temperature resistance, chem

What You'll Learn

Additive manufacturing, is an increasingly popular technology for the new age Digital Manufacturing involving the generation of parts and features from computer-aided drawings (CAD) in a typical layer by layer manner using various forms of materials from uterlising Polymer or Metal-Based Additive. A direct deposition is one of the many forms of additive manufacturing and in this course, the focus is on the laser blown powder technique for the manufacturing and/or remanufacturing of metal-based components – where a laser is used to melt metal powders delivered by a flowing gas to form first a melt pool which solidifies to create layers of deposition on a workpiece. It is synonymous with laser welding with a powder feedstock. This free-form fabrication method can be employed for a wide range of Design For Manufacturing And Assembly generative and regenerative applications such as feature addition and/or repair of components, coatings for functional purposes, on top of new component manufacturing, and across various industries – aerospace, automotive, marine and offshore, energy and infrastructure, heavy machinery, etc.
Learners will also be instructed in the Process Development Management process.
