DFT255 3D Printing/Additive Manufacturing 4 Credits

Rapidly advancing additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, often called 3D printing, provide us a direct way of converting digital data into physical objects. Additive manufacturing enables the building of customized parts previously impossible to fabricate. Design for Additive Manufacturing teaches background, terminology, fundamentals designing for additive manufacturing, and current AM technology as well as advantages and limitations of 3D printing, materials, and post-processing. Students will learn and apply technique through lab activities, machine operation and maintenance, part design and analysis, adapting stereolithography files, printing models, and post-processing.

Prerequisites: A grade of C or better in DFT254AA, or permission of Department or Division.
