Introduction to additive manufacturing (Online)
This online course will give an overview of available additive manufacturing technologies and how they affect business and supply chain. It will explain the processes’ underlying physical principles, relevant standards and qualification principles, as well as discuss current research.
Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is an emerging technique for direct conversion of 3D computer-aided designs into physical objects using a variety of approaches. AM technologies are flexible processes that allow for the creation of very complex and customizable 3D objects in just a few process steps and thus have the potential of a significant impact on the supply chain.
Despite the huge potential of AM, there is still limited adaption in different industries, especially in oil & gas and maritime. Is the challenge of implementing AM inherent to challenges in the technology or due to lack of awareness of the AM/business potential in top management?
Course description
Day 1 and 2 of this three-day, online course will provide information on AM awareness and what impact AM has on a business/supply chain. It will give you an overview of the business potentials, already proven examples in different industries, but also limitations of AM. In addition, an overview of the available processes and their capabilities will be given.
On day 3 we will dive deeper into selected processes, explain their underlying physical principles, present practical examples from joint industry projects (JIPs), relevant standards and qualification principles and discuss current research.
Learning objective
Upon completion of this course, participants will have an overview of the most important AM technologies, how they influence the supply chain, and how to get started with AM.
Target group
Typical participants are:
- Executives seeking to understand the strategic implications of this novel technology (It is possible to join only day 1 and 2 of this course.)
- Materials engineers within the offshore and subsea oil and gas, maritime, and energy sector
- Professionals working with manufacturing and fabrication
- Design engineers with a special interest in AM
- Procurement/supply chain specialists.
