Session 2: Additive Manufacturing
Join the 4th Industrial Revolution with Additive Manufacturing
In this presentation, Bob English explores the technology, part designs, and materials used in Additive Manufacturing (AM). Attendees learn about some printed parts with complex geometries that make them incredibly strong yet lightweight. English discusses how pre-print software simplifies the AM workflow with a comprehensive solution to design the part, customize parameters, simulate thermomechanical behaviors, and highlight issues related to temperature, stress, and distortion.
