You are invited to attend a special three-day course on design for additive manufacturing (DfAM). Topics covered include consolidating many parts into one, topology optimization, and lattice/mesh structures. The course includes considerations for metal, polymer, and composite materials, the creation of custom parts, and reducing the need for expensive support material. Presentations and hands-on exercises cover these and many other topics. Read More

Click here for the three-day course outline. Our past courses in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Germany, South Africa, and the U.S. have received an overall average score of 4.7 from the participants, with five being the best.

 

Benefits of DfAM

Methods of DfAM were applied to a redesign of a hydraulic manifold for Atlas Copco mining equipment. It reduced weight by 91% and consolidated 13 parts into one, resulting in lower assembly cost, less weight and scrap, and the elimination of potential leakage points. Learn how to design these and many other types of parts in this special DfAM course. Register now!
