Quality and production management in additive manufacturing

This module is part of a bundled training course, the iAM Engineer and iAM Quality Manager certificate line.

ABOUT THE COURSE

This paid course aims to enable the participating quality manager or production manager to implement a high quality level in AM production in a targeted manner. The training is very practice-oriented and includes the typical hurdles for an implementation as well as suitable measures to avoid them.

Quality management as an umbrella term for organizational measures to improve process quality plays a major role in additive manufacturing. In addition to the measures generally known from existing quality management standards, such as a clear definition of roles and processes or the creation of clear communication structures, process specific aspects must also be taken into account in additive manufacturing. High complexity, a partial lack of general standards and little staff experience are just some of the aspects to be mentioned here.
