Recently with an initiative of Director DEI, Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing) facility is being established in DEI. Additive Manufacturing (AM) provide us a direct way of converting digital data into physical objects. Understanding the advantages and limitations of AM technologies is important for future engineers in developing new engineering systems and identifying emerging opportunities in developing products for mass customization. Practical experience is given through a Lab Course. Lab sessions provide hands-on experience. This is an elective course that is offered in B.Tech. 7th Semester M.Tech. program. The course prepares the students for advanced careers related to advanced manufacturing.
Understand the operating principles, capabilities, and limitations of state-of-the-art AM methods. Understand the principles of "Design for Additive Manufacturing" and compare and contrast AM with conventional manufacturing methods such as machining and moulding in terms of rate, quality, cost, and flexibility. Gain hands-on experience with desktop AM machines and understand the complete process by designing, fabricating, and measuring example parts. Realize applications of AM across major industries, and understand the requirements and constraints of each via case studies. Place AM in the context of the evolving manufacturing infrastructure.
