Engineering 3D Printing and Modelling Essentials for Beginner to Intermediate (2 Days) v2

Learn what it and future proof yourself by enlarging job opportunities. Understand why with 3D printing, the sky is the limit. Learn how to model and turn your imagination into reality. Learn how to make real-life 3D physical objects. Learn how to find remade models or design your own.
Introduction: 3D Printing (also known as Additive Manufacturing) has taken the world by storm. Not only is it already providing current job opportunities, but in the future many more job positions will be created. Cost has dropped down to levels that even consumers can afford. What used to be impossible to make and manufacture has become possible. Prototyping or making small quantities has become so economical or easy, reducing time to market. In this course, you will learn what it is exactly, and what goes into the creation of 3d prints. You will be exposed to the innovative ways the world is using this technology. You will get to see 3D printer in action and make your own parts. Topics: 1.
