Enseignant(s): Brugger Jürgen, Pu Ye

Langue: Anglais

Withdrawal: It is not allowed to withdraw from this subject after the registration deadline.

Summary

Advanced 3D forming techniques for high throughput and high resolution (nanometric) for large scale production. Digital manufacturing of functional layers, microsystems and smart systems.

Content

High speed 3D printing with polymers (light based, single photon and two photon)
Fabrication methods for 3D nanometric resolution
Drop on demand digital printing

The TPs are linked to the theoretical material presented in the course.

The last part of the course, Industry speakers are invited to give lectures on selected topics of advanced additive manufacturing
