Learning outcomes
Recognise and distinguish between the different classes of polymeric materials used for Additive Manufacturing.
Select the adequate Additive Manufacturing process based on the functional requirements of the product.
Demonstrate in-depth understanding of additive manufacturing technologies.
Discuss in detail the factors that affect geometric properties such as minimum wall thickness, minimum feature size and/or minimum space between designed surface of 3D printed part.
Choose appropriate strategy for the orientation of a 3D printed part on the build platform and the generation of the support structure in order to minimise postprocessing activities.
Demonstrate practical skills in 3D printing of polymers.

Assessment summary
Continuous assessment: 50%
Final assessment: 50%
This unit contains threshold hurdle requirements that you must achieve to be able to pass the unit. You are required to achieve at least 45% in the total continuous assessment component and at least 45% in the final assessment component. The consequence of not achieving a hurdle requirement is a fail grade (NH) and a maximum mark of 45 for the unit.
