"This course is aimed to provide both fundamentals and applied knowledge of additive manufacturing technologies. Those who want to implement various AM technologies in their workplace, can benefit from this course, " he added.
'Additive Manufacturing' (AM) is emerging as an attractive process to produce various engineering and biomedical components.
There is a huge potential for use of AM in various engineering and biomedical applications.
It has already emerged as a viable, cost-effective and net-shape manufacturing process for low volume production of complex body implants with specific custom-made designs
