Additive Manufacturing for decision-makers
Seminar-Nr.: 30601301
Utilise the economic and environmental opportunities of 3D printing - avoiding the risks
As a decision-maker, the seminar supports you in using the acquired technical knowledge on the basics of additive manufacturing and the imparted assessment approaches to examine a potential introduction in your practical production process. After successful completion of the seminar, you will be able to reliably identify economic and ecological potential in your individual company environment and correctly assess risks.
In addition to the basics of 3D printing, the additive manufacturing training also includes the advantages and disadvantages, possibilities and limitations of the various technologies. Furthermore, the seminar shows you current and future market trends.
Our lecturers have specialised in different areas of additive manufacturing and present you with numerous practical examples of exciting applications that you can also adapt for your own processes. You will gain an insight into how data is generated and which printing materials are used. You will also learn about new options in design and system development.
The seminar is aimed in particular at people responsible for management, technical management and purchasing who would like to gain a sound overview of additive manufacturing. In addition to the numerous practical examples, the seminar also offers the opportunity for professional discussion of individual use cases in the auditorium.
