UNIT 3 Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing
Read the activities overview.
In this unit, learners will be provided with an overview of additive manufacturing (AM) and 3D printing. They will be in touch with key concepts related to these areas, their applications and their implications in design and manufacturing in the industry 4.0 era. Thereby, learners are expected to acquire the knowledge and confidence they need to deliver these contents to their students/trainees and thus increase their awareness and preparation for career opportunities in the areas of AM and 3D printing.
