Free Weekend Seminar Jan 23, 2016: 3D Printing in Engineering

Selective Laser Sintering is a 3D printing technology that offers a cost effective alternative manufacturing process to machining and molding for end used parts. To take advantage of the capabilities of the technology, designers need to learn the key factors to consider when designing a part that will be used as final product in an assembly.

Some of the topics will be covered in this session:

•When to choose the SLS for end used part;
•How to guarantee the parts structural integrity;
•How to design for minimum weight;
•What are the achievable tolerances;
•Presentation of a number of very interesting and innovative cases for End of Arm Tooling and Jigs & Fixtures and Pick n Place.
