This course is officially recognised and labelled by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT). EIT Label is a quality mark awarded to programmes demonstrating outstanding innovation, educational excellence and societal impact.
This learning path enables to relate and apply the key concepts pertaining to additive manufacturing of multi-materials primarily focusing on the design of multi-materials, encompassing various types of multi-materials, their processing methods and limitations therein, common defects, and design tools to execute the printing from CAD model to the final product.
Learning outcomes
- Be able to determine the potential applications in different sectors (such as aerospace and Industrial), which can benefit from a multi-material strategy, and establish the most suitable technology (FDM, DED, PBF) for achieving productivity and sustainability goals.
- Be able to create a design for a basic multi-material component utilizing two materials, focusing on the workflow for Laser directed energy deposition (DED) method.
- Be able to identify typical processing defects associated with multi-material manufacturing methods, along with their causes and apply appropriate mitigation techniques.
