Content
Materials for additive manufacturing are different to other manufacturing techniques in the way they are composed, characterised and formed. Engineers must adapt to changing material requirements and new opportunities. In SEM725, you will learn how to resolve the complexities involved in additive manufacturing material specification and justify material selection for application in specific contexts. You will need to respond to changing parameters such as sustainability drivers, emerging biomedical application and new composite innovations suitable for additive manufacturing. You will be able to compare, contrast and evaluate the parameters for material selection for specific applications such as industrial manufacturing, medical devices and sustainability targets.
