SUMMARY
Building on the promise of 3D printing for cost-effective, tailored industrial solutions, this training takes you on a hands-on journey into additive manufacturing. Have you ever wondered how custom tools are designed and optimized for automated systems? This course offers an in-depth exploration of how a simple concept evolves into a practical, high-performing tool through six iterative design stages.
Through the example of a cup remover tool, you’ll uncover the engineering challenges, creative problem-solving, and cutting-edge applications of additive manufacturing. This training equips you with the skills to harness 3D printing for creating innovative, customized solutions that meet industrial needs. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast or a professional in manufacturing, this course will spark your creativity and elevate your understanding of modern production technologies.

About The Author
Pannon Business Network is the collaborative center for applied research, training and advanced manufacturing to catalyse value creation by digitalization as active catalyst of the ecosystem. Linked to industry, academia and citizens, it is facilitating digital, human-centred, resilient and green transformation with focus on business and healthy ageing through its connected divisions.
The 18-year consequent building resulted in three complementary organisation units, and one of them is focusing on advanced manufacturing and this unit is called am-LAB which is a DIH. It focuses on digital technologies, robotics, data science, extended reality and 3D technologies. A broad portfolio of connected technological devices is available in the laboratory, with in-house engineering staff.
