获奖on demand manufacturing providerProtolabsand Colorado-based additive manufacturing consultantsWohlers Associateshave collaborated to run a Designing for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) course. Taking place over three days, the course is an invitation-only event, established through a shared desire between the companies to help engineers and designers effectively use 3D printing technologies. Most of the course will take place near Raleigh, North Carolina, with the programme concluding at Protolabs’ 77,000 sq. ft 3D printing facility in Morrisville.
“Additive manufacturing has moved well beyond this worn-out notion that it has to prove its worth— we’ve seen first hand its maturation over the years and have literally 3D printed millions of parts during that time,” explains Protolabs’ President and CEO, Vicki Holt. “We know it’s an extremely valuable prototyping tool but it has now made significant strides in materials and technology where production is its logical next phase.”
“Collaborating with the world’s leading additive experts—and those who look to leverage that technology to its fullest—will serve to proliferate the education and adoption of 3D printing.”
帮助公司实现添加剂制造的全部潜力
Wohlers Associates的主要顾问兼总裁Terry Wohlers将与Wohlers Associates的副顾问Olaf Diegel一起领导该课程，两者都将在那里对DFAM进行讨论。Diegel还担任创意设计和增材制造实验室的负责人University of Auckland, and will bring his knowledge and experience from this position to the DfAM course. Several polymer and metal 3D printing engineer experts from Protolabs will also be joining Wohlers and Diegel in leading the course.
“Designing for AM offers unique challenges and opportunities not found in traditional design methods,” commented Terry Wohlers.
“ Protolabs在3D印刷中带来了巨大的专业知识和领导力。我们很高兴共同努力，为与会者提供技术技能和制造知识，以释放添加剂制造的全部潜力。”
protolabs推进工业3D打印
对于原始标记，DFAM课程是推进添加剂制造作为制造业的可靠和有效选择的更大目标的一部分。与Wohlers Associates的合作伙伴关系遵循以前的举措，以推动这一目标向前发展。2018年，该公司加入了GE添加剂’s制造合作伙伴网络(MPN), which aims to overcome hurdles in the 3D printing industry, specifically helping customers additively manufacture components at a higher volume.
此外，protolabs也成为麻省理工学院(MIT)’sCenter for Additive and Digital Advanced Production Technologies(ADAPT) consortium, which focuses on scaling new manufacturing technology through research, and accelerating theimplementation of additive manufacturing。
