[updated 05.11.2020]
Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

MAB_19_IP_5.03.AGF (P241-0225, P241-0226) Mechanical and Process Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2019 , semester 5, mandatory course, Specialization Industrial Production
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
30 class hours (= 22.5 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 60 hours (equivalent to 2 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 37.5 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
MAB_19_A_2.01.CAD CAD 3D Modeling
MAB_19_A_2.02.TFL Manufacturing Process Technology (with Lab Course)
MAB_19_M_4.07.FBG Production-Optimized Component Design


[updated 06.04.2020]
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Jürgen Griebsch
Lecturer:
M.Eng. Tobias Häfele

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this part of the module, students will be familiar with additive manufacturing technologies and be able to apply their knowledge about it.
They will be familiar with the typical fields of application for different procedures and also their limits. Students will be proficient in the production-ready design (CAD; bionic principles) of components manufactured using an additive process. They will be able to evaluate the feasibility of existing designs or drawings and to recognize cost drivers of generative manufacturing processes and thus, to name the most economically reasonable production method for components.
