NERDIC Industry 4.0 Readiness Ecosystem: Benchmarking 3D Printed Parts Manufactured with the Desktop Metal Studio System for Defense Supply – How can installation, maintenance, upgrades and operator training variables affect quality control?
<h5>This introductory workshop is part of the NERDIC Industry 4.0 Readiness Ecosystem program for small manufacturing enterprises in the defense supply chain. For more information, please visit ccat.us/NERDIC.</h5>
Learn about what to expect when installing a Desktop Metal System; Overview of install & operations experience, facility, safety & training requirements, vendor support; How the BIC, CCAT and UMaine benchmarked these systems; How to access benchmark files and data; Description of DM case studies underway at BIC; How to access BIC’s facility for training, application development and project collaboration.
Learning Objectives
Learn how Desktop Metal Studio System can be used in defense manufacturing:
¥ How to prepare your facility, permitting requirements, facility certification options
¥ OSHA training and safety requirements, compared with LPBF, DMLS, LENS and Binder Jetting
¥ Advantages / disadvantages of printing with bound metal powder compared with LPBF
¥ Outline applications for DM metal prototypes, fixtures, molds and end use parts
¥ Review of the design process for benchmarking, developed with CCAT and UMaine – Can the NIST AM Test Artifact be used in FDM metal printing or is a new standard needed?
¥ Comparison of benchmark results with other 3D printing processes available at CCAT, BIC and UMaine (including LPBF, Binder Jetting, large format polymer FDM and DMLS)
¥ Can Fused Deposition Modeled Sintered metal parts meet Mil-spec end use requirements?
