Design for Metal Powder Bed Fusion

Using a mix of interactive videos featuring experts from within the Design for Additive Manufacture team from the National Centre for Additive Manufacturing (NCAM), online discussions, software simulations and self-paced activities, this online course will provide you with the necessary skills and knowledge that you need to be able to exploit the design freedom of additive manufacturing. It will take you through the stages needed, from conception to the design of a component using best practice methods and appropriate software, to ensure that your component is optimised for function and manufacturing via metal powder bed fusion additive methods.
