Overview

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a workflow that encompasses several different phases which engineers and manufacturers navigate to produce prototypes, tooling components and end-use parts. In the first instance, parts need to be designed for the relevant process and the right material needs to be selected to meet the pre-determined part requirements. Then, you’ll want to ensure that the printing phase runs smoothly and efficiently, before doing the same during the post-processing steps. And with climate targets and strategies becoming ever more common, you may also need to explore how to run this workflow in a more environmentally friendly way.

Throughout this webinar, HP will tackle all of these considerations and highlight a series of use cases.

Learning Objectives:

  • How to approach the design of an additively manufactured part, taking full advantage of the 3D printing process and avoiding common pitfalls.
  • What you must consider when selecting a material for your 3D printing process.
  • How to make the printing phase as productive as possible, considering speed and temperature capabilities, as well as densely packing the build volume.
  • How to approach the post-processing of a 3D printed part, considering these steps in the design phase and ensuring they are carried out efficiently.
  • Understanding the challenges of reducing carbon footprints , while exploring plant-based materials and other products that can help to reduce CO2 emissions in your AM processes.
