Metal Additive Manufacturing Professional – Design

The Fraunhofer Personnel Certification Authority at Fraunhofer FIT certifies qualifications in the field of Metal Additive Manufacturing Design.

The certificate "Metal Additive Manufacturing Professional – Design" certifies graduates with practically applicable knowledge of how the potentials of additive manufacturing (functional integration, integral design, lightweight construction, etc.) are transferred into a component design. In addition, a "Metal Additive Manufacturing Professional – Design" is able to handle design tasks for metal-based additive manufacturing from design to manufacturing preparation in compliance with design guidelines.

Examination topics include:

• Design guidelines for additive manufacturing
• Conceptual design and layout of additive components
• Criteria for additive design along the entire process chain
• Re-design of case studies
