Additive Manufacturing Processes – Polymers

This course focuses on basic principles and methodology of different types of polymers and processes created with the Additive Manufacturing (AM) process. Comparison of selecting the best type of polymer for production will be discussed. Students receive proper instruction on safety operations, set-up and routine maintenance and production on the AM systems. Students learn the various types of polymer AM systems; ie. Fused Deposition Manufacturing (FDM), PolyJet, and SLA.
