Sustainability in Additive Manufacturing
Measure and reduce AM’s carbon footprint
Sustainability is becoming a key driver in manufacturing. This course helps you look beyond the printing step and assess the full environmental impact of AM. Topics include:
Fundamentals of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
Key drivers: material selection, energy consumption, process efficiency
How to compare AM with conventional production methods
Case studies and tools to calculate and reduce CO₂ impact
You will gain practical skills to apply sustainability thinking in your AM projects and make fact-based decisions.
Quickly estimate costs for metal applications
The Additive Manufacturing online learning course COST CALCULATION METAL enables you to deeply understand the cost drivers for the most common AM technologies. It covers the fundamentals of AM cost calculation and at the same time provides general values for inhouse and external manufacturing costs for the following metal technologies:
- Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF)
- Electron Powder Bed Fusion (EPBF)
- Metal Binder Jetting
- Metal FDM
- Laser Metal Deposition (LMD)
- Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM)
This course is specifically targeted towards designers and professionals that need to calculate costs for metal AM.
