This two-day workshop focuses on key aspects of Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) for polymer and metal 3D printing technologies. The workshop primarily focuses on critical design considerations such as optimal part orientation, support structure design and distortion prediction in additive manufacturing processes. The common failures that occur during printing and their solutions will be discussed in details to avoid failure in print.
A key component of the workshop will be hands on training using specialized additive manufacturing software tools, where, participants will practice generating support structures, performing distortion and build simulations. The event sessions will demonstrate how simulation can be used to predict potential build failures, enabling designers to optimize their parts before printing.
In addition, the workshop includes two expert lectures delivered by international speakers from Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI), who will share insights into advanced DfAM strategies and real-world industrial applications of additive manufacturing.
