The Department of Mechanical Engineering at SRM University – AP organises a webinar titled “Additive Manufacturing: Fundamentals, Processes, and Applications” on Aug 19, 2021, at 5:30 pm. The lecture by Prof P. M. Pandey, Professor at Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi aims to educate the audience on how additive manufacturing (AM) will transform manufacturing in the future.
Additive manufacturing (AM) technology has been recognized as an emerging technology for the direct fabrication of physical objects from the developed computer-aided design (CAD) models. AM techniques make real physical objects by adding materials in a layer-by-layer fashion rather than removing the material. The layered manufacturing abilities of AM technologies offer the building of parts with geometric and material complexities. Numerous AM techniques are simple and flexible that allow easy production of complex and customized objects. Through intensive research over the past two decades, significant progress has been made in the development and commercialization of new and innovative AM processes. Further, numerous practical applications in aerospace, automotive, biomedical, energy and other fields have been discovered.
