Mandatory prerequisites

4th semester in a Bachelor Engineering Programme must be passed. Furthermore, knowledge of basic 3D CAD drawing skills is required (eg, Inventor, Solid Works, AutoCad or the like).

Learning objectives - Knowledge

After the course the student will have:
•Knowledge of the range of 3D print technologies and their application areas
•Knowledge of available materials (metal, composite and plastics) for 3D printing
•Knowledge of decision parameters for additive manufacturing in and industrial context 
•Knowledge of applications within the main three domains of 3D printing/additive manufacturing
•Knowledge of complementary areas for additive manufacturing through industrial cases

Learning objectives - Skills

After the course the student will have the ability to:
•Design the strategic decision for working with additive manufacturing
•Decide upon an additive manufacturing solution based on technology and material consideration
•Design and develop components for specific additive manufacturing purposes  

Learning objectives - Competences

After the course the student will be able to:
•Design a component for additive production, through an industrial case
•Plan the development process, from strategic decision to printed component

Content

This course introduces methods and techniques for Additive manufacturing in an industrial context. Three main areas will be covered in order to apply additive manufacturing; 1) Technologies within 3D printing, 2) Materials designed for additive manufacturing and 3) Design methods for additive manufacturing. The three areas will be combined into a structured approach for deciding on additive manufacturing applications followed by a design for additive manufacturing process. 
The obtained knowledge will be applied in a both a strategic decision process followed by an applied “Design for Additive” – process including different 3D print activities.

Teaching Method

The Faculty of Engineering has adopted a student-centered approach to learning, and teaching is based on problem-based project work. Students participate significantly in class and carry out project work in small teams. The experimental work, data analysis and reporting will be done in teams. The course is a combination of theory lectures, experiments, analysis and laboratory work.

Time of classes: Two weeks in August
