FDP on additive manufacturing potential challenges
Event Date: 13th - 17th May 2024
The topic of additive manufacturing: potential & challenges for the Faculty Development Program was selected because it epitomizes a revolutionary shift in manufacturing technologies, offering substantial advancements in efficiency, customization, and sustainability. As a rapidly evolving field, it provides significant research and teaching opportunities, enabling faculty to stay abreast of the latest industry trends and innovations. By delving into additive manufacturing, faculty can enhance their technical knowledge and practical skills, fostering a deeper understanding of its applications across various sectors. This, in turn, empowers them to better prepare students for future careers in engineering, design, and advanced manufacturing industries.”
Distinguished speakers from esteemed institutions such as IIT Delhi, IIT Kanpur, and North Carolina State University, USA, alongside industry leaders from companies like Auto desk and ARK Infosolutions Pvt. Ltd. beautified the event in the upcoming days of the FDP. They shared insights and expertise on various aspects of Additive Manufacturing, enriching the program with their profound knowledge.
The program boasted a diverse range of topics, from fundamental advancements in Additive Manufacturing to applications of generative AI and ANSYS solutions. Moreover, sessions focussed on hybrid additive metal manufacturing processes and additive manufacturing for medical applications promise to offer valuable perspectives on cutting-edge advancements in the field.
The FDP also addressed the challenges encountered in FDM 3D printing and discuss crucial aspects such as toolpath planning and design optimization of additively manufactured parts. Notably, the event culminated with a valedictory session encompassing case studies and a ceremonial closing under the esteemed patronage of Prof. K. Mallikharjuna Babu, Vice Chancellor, and Prof. Avadhesh Kumar, Pro Vice-Chancellor.
The coordination was further facilitated by Mr. Shrikant Vidya, Assistant Professor, DOME, Dr. Abhilash Purohit, Assistant Professor, DOME, and Dr. Nav Rattan, Assistant Professor, DOME.
