Teaching description
Knowledge of Technical Industrial Design is useful.
The course aims to provide an overview of Additive Manufacturing processes, explain their underlying physical principles, discuss current research and an appreciation for why AM is so important to many branches of industry.
It will be outlined the rapid development of this technology from humble beginnings that showed promise but still requiring much development, to one that is now maturing and showing real benefit to product development organizations.
In order to take maximum advantage from the capabilities of additive metal technology in the most economical way, will be studied how to design for this technology by following its principles. At the same time, the aspects relating to the design for additive metal manufacturing (DFAM) concept and, the act of integrating product design and additive manufacturing principles into one activity, will be illustrated.
The course introduces some of the DFAM rules of the additive metal technology by going through the details of its capabilities and constraints.
Laboratory exercises will be carried out by 3D printer with FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) and Wax Jet Printing technology, in addition to laboratory exercises that will be focused on tools for the finite element simulation of additive processes.
- Knowledge for characterization and use of Additive Manufacturing technologies.
- Basic knowledge of Design for Additive Manufacturing.
Frontal lessons and computer lab exercises
