Introducing AMPE: Additive Manufacturing Professional Education
We are excited to announce the launch of our newly redeveloped training program: Additive Manufacturing Professional Education (AMPE). Designed to build directly on your team's existing technical knowledge, AMPE elevates your operational workflows and systematically expands your organization’s 3D printing capabilities.
At the heart of AMPE is a customized, three-step curriculum tailored directly to your specific components, materials, and production goals:
- Reverse Engineering & Physical Digitization: Learn to translate physical parts into precise digital models. Equip your team to rapidly replace broken components, analyze competitor designs, and digitize legacy physical inventory into functional CAD assets.
- CAD Manipulation & Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM): Master the digital workflow by modifying off-the-shelf CAD models (from suppliers like McMaster-Carr), creating custom prototypes, and designing specifically for AM constraints. Experiment with novel concepts while keeping development costs low and lead times short.
- Hardware, Materials & Production Optimization: Dive deep into the physical printing ecosystem. Go beyond basic slice settings to master material selection, printer calibration, environmental control, routine maintenance, cycle-time optimization, and post-processing techniques.
We adapt to your operational requirements: training can be conducted on your existing in-house equipment, target machinery from SANC you are considering adopting, or a diverse suite of printers for broad capability development.
By integrating additive manufacturing into your operations, you expand your in-house range—from temporary replacement parts and custom prototype workholding to full production-grade components. AMPE gives your team the skills to execute high-value 3D printing strategies across all budget and performance levels.
