Master Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing

3D printing is a cutting-edge technology that's changing the manufacturing landscape. It's well suited for rapid prototyping, quick turnaround end-use parts, or even tooling for traditional manufacturing techniques. Begin with the basics, and learn how to design objects and prepare them for 3D printing.

• Discover skills and methods for designing 3D printable objects.
• Compare 3D printing to other manufacturing methods.
• Analyze your designs and modify them for 3D printing.

• Course 1: 3D Printing: Short-Run Production
• Discover why 3D printing is a viable alternative for short-run production. Review the benefits, costs, materials, and use cases for additive manufacturing.
• Course 2: Rapid Prototyping for Product Design
• Bring your product designs into the real world with rapid prototyping. Get a close look at the machinery and the techniques, such as 3D printing, machining, and injection molding.
• Course 3: Design for Additive Manufacturing: FDM
• Use design for manufacturing concepts to optimize your parts for 3D printing with fused deposition modeling (FDM) technology.
• Course 4: Additive Manufacturing: Optimizing 3D Prints
• Get high-quality 3D prints, every time. Learn how to adjust and manage 3D printer settings to achieve the best possible results.
• Course 5: Additive Manufacturing: Troubleshoot 3D Prints
• Learn how to fix common 3D printing problems, such as prints that don't stick to the bed, pimples and dimples, and geometry issues.
• Course 6: Additive Manufacturing for Business
• Discover additive manufacturing techniques and learn how to apply the techniques in business.
