Konstruktion für die Additive Fertigung

What it is about

You will receive a practice-oriented introduction to component design for additive manufacturing. You will go through the complete process chain from component concept to build job preparation and manufacturing, and deepen your knowledge in an iterative design project with rapid prototyping.

What you will be able to do

• Applying design and manufacturing guidelines of additive manufacturing
• Selecting suitable manufacturing strategies for AM
• Presenting the process chain of additively manufactured parts
• Assessing components with regard to design for additive manufacturing
• Tackling an engineering problem using CAD and rapid prototyping

What the module consists of

• Praktikumpractical development of component concept, design and build job preparation; independent work at the computer; design project with rapid prototyping

Teaching method

• (Online-)VortragIntroduction to the contents of the respective dates
• Selbstständige CAD-Arbeit am Rechner (z. B. SolidWorks/Autodesk)Development of design- and build job preparations as well as implementation of the project
• Projektarbeit/KonstruktionsprojektDeepening of the learned skills through an iterative development process and rapid prototyping
• Materialextrusion (Rapid Prototyping)Rapid evaluation of selected functional elements of the engineering problem
