What you'll learn

  • Understanding the quality assurance aspects of industrial 3D printing
  • Knowledge of deviations and defects
  • Introduction to standardization activities
  • Knowledge of different component categories - and their respective test needs

Course content

1 section • 6 lectures • 32m total length

  • Introduction0:33

    Explore quality control for additive manufacturing, examine typical defects and deviations and their test methods, and review standardization activities.

  • The need for quality7:33
  • Defects and deviations in additive manufacturing3:51

    Identify defects and deviations in additive manufacturing—surface quality, dimensional geometry, internal structure, and mechanical properties—and summarize validation methods like profilometers, calipers, CT scans, and metallography.

  • Standardization activities in additive manufacturing2:29

    Discover how standardization in additive manufacturing aligns terminology, processes, materials, and test methods to ensure quality, and how general, category, and specialized standards define risk-related test categories and acceptance criteria.

  • Final quiz
  • Next relevant course5:44

    Explore directed energy deposition methods—lens technology, ebam technology, and wham/wan technologies—covering laser or electron beam setups, powder or wire feeding, processing flow, deposition, and part cooling.

  • Other relevant course12:01

    Learn how additive manufacturing enables design optimization across cases like a 3D-printed robot gripper, with weight reduction, faster production, and lower costs.

Requirements

  • No prerequisites - only a healthy interest in 3D printing

Description

This online course focuses on how to ensure the quality of your 3D-printed components. Quality assurance has become increasingly important with the growing prevalence of Industrial 3D printing. The course focuses on how to approach quality control and at the same time looks at some of the typical defects and deviations - and how to test for them.


Learn how to ensure the quality of 3D-printed components

Additive Manufacturing (AM) - or 3D printing - is increasingly used as a production resource and thus no longer only for prototypes.

In this course, we go in depth with the quality assurance of 3D-printed components. Quality assurance is becoming increasingly important as 3D printing is used more and more in the manufacture of industrial end components - including the critical ones. You will learn how to work with quality assurance, and you will gain insight into some of the typical defects and challenges that can arise when working with 3D printing - and you will learn how to test for them. With the Danish Technological Institute as a course provider, you are also sure to get an independent and objective review of the methods.


Benefits

  • Understanding of why, when and how to ensure quality in connection with 3D printing

  • Insight into what you can test - and different test methods

  • Overview of typical defects and challenges associated with 3D printing

  • Knowledge of different component categories - and their respective test needs

  • Knowledge of standardization activities within 3D printing

Who this course is for:

  • People interested in 3D printing - especially on an industrial level
