3D printing in FDM technology

The training comprehensively introduces one of the most popular methods of additive manufacturing. The course aims to provide participants with practical knowledge of FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) technology, its possibilities and limitations, as well as key aspects related to the selection of appropriate materials and machines. During the training, participants will learn how to correctly select building and support materials, how to calculate production costs, and what are the best practices for post-processing in FDM technology. Specific cases of application of this technology in various industries, including R&D, design and maintenance departments, will also be discussed.

The aim of the course is to prepare participants to independently and effectively use FDM technology in their professional work. The training aims to provide practical knowledge about all stages of 3D printing, from the selection of materials and machines, through process optimization, to the use of final products in various industries. The course is also aimed at supporting participants in making informed investment decisions, both in the context of purchasing new and used FDM machines.

• Introduction to FDM technology. Discussion of the principle of operation of FDM technology;
• Scope of materials used in FDM technology;
• Main features of 3D printing using FDM technology. Discuss the benefits and limitations of this technology;
• Selection of building and support material for printing – where to start;
• Production report for 3D printing – what information should it contain to estimate the cost and production time of the part;
• Post processing – is it available for FDM technology and what final effect can we achieve?
• The use of elements manufactured using FDM technology – Case Studies.
• Investing in your own system. What should you pay attention to when choosing a machine?
• Technological audit in terms of machine investment;
• Secondary market for FDM systems. What should you pay attention to when buying a used machine? Is a more expensive machine always a bigger investment? How to calculate the return on investment?
• Selection of materials for technical prints. What selection criteria should be taken into account at the design stage?
• The use of 3D printing in R&D, design and maintenance departments. Is there a universal 3D printer?
• Topological optimization of printed models;
• 3D printing from prototype to final product – case studies.

• Understanding FDM technology: participants will gain in-depth knowledge of how FDM technology works, which will allow them to use this method effectively in their daily work.
• Material selection skills: the course will teach you how to select appropriate materials for specific applications, taking into account technical and economic requirements.
• Process optimization: Learning methods for topological optimization of printed models will enable participants to create more durable and cost-effective components.
• Effective investment planning: the course will help you conduct a technology audit and make informed decisions about investing in a new or used FDM machine.
• Practical application: Participants will gain knowledge on practical applications of 3D printing, which will allow them to introduce this technology into research and development, production and maintenance departments.

The training is intended for people who want to deepen their knowledge of FDM technology and implement it in their organizations. In particular, this course is dedicated to:

• • Production engineers
  • Maintenance specialists
  • Project managers
  • R&D Engineers
  • Technologists
  • Prototyping specialists
  • Technical Managers
  • People responsible for investing in new technologies

• PLN 1,000 (including lunch dishes, coffee buffet and printed materials).
