What it is about

You will learn innovative design methods for additive manufacturing and apply them practically. The module covers digital design concepts and the entire process chain of additive manufacturing; you will assess technical and economic aspects and prepare digital build jobs for different technologies. In the end you will be able to optimize production-ready parts with CAD and simulation tools and select suitable AM processes for polymer and metal parts.

What you will be able to do

  • Demonstrate expertise in innovative design methods for AM with polymers and metals
  • Technically and economically evaluate the entire process chain of additive manufacturing
  • Operate CAD and simulation tools to optimize production-ready parts
  • Differentiate suitable AM processes and prepare digital build jobs
  • Assess economic feasibility based on cost analyses
  • Work effectively in interdisciplinary teams and critically reflect on design decisions
  • Present results and address complex, practical challenges with innovative, sustainable solutions

What the module consists of

  • BlockpraktikumDeepening of the semester-long internship; practical application in a multi-day design challenge
  • Presentations / Lecture componentsConveying theoretical foundations and central design concepts
  • Teamwork / ProjectWorking on a complex, practice-oriented design challenge in a team with the aim of an actionable solution
  • Online tests (Moodle)Short knowledge checks to review and reinforce the theoretical foundations
