APS Meetings 2023 Congress program

A real headache in metal 3D printing: how can you be sure of having a good part right from the first print? Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE additive manufacturing solutions make it possible, and you'll find out how in this session, which looks at design, preparation for 3D printing, simulation and compensation for any distortions if necessary.

In the additive manufacturing sector, ceramics is still a booming niche sector. Advances in various techniques mean that mass production can now be envisaged for technical and traditional ceramics.

One Click Metal is a German manufacturer of laser melting machines for metal powder beds (LPBF, SLM, DMLS).
This integrated turnkey solution is economical and guarantees simple and safe handling for the operator thanks to its powder cartridges.

Mastering support techniques in Additive Manufacturing goes beyond the technical challenges faced by most FA designers and manufacturers. The new challenge today is to dispense with supports and open up new applications, previously impossible with this manufacturing technique, and to increase its market share in the overall manufacture of high added-value technical parts. The aim of this presentation will be to raise public awareness of the ‘kNOw supports’ concept developed by the Additive Minds team at EOS, to share concrete examples, and finally to identify the few challenges that still need to be overcome if this technique is to become a standard in metal additive manufacturing.

Tritone MoldJet is a powder-free additive manufacturing technology that enables the production of complex, high-density metal and ceramic parts with industrial productivity in a wide variety of materials.

Design, topological optimisation with lattice structure, manufacture and testing of a turbine disc for a turbopump on a space launcher. Project in partnership with CNES.

Metal printing can now be used to produce highly complex parts, offering a number of advantages over conventional technologies. However, depending on the application, the technology can be prohibitively expensive per part.
An appropriate approach is to opt for hybrid manufacturing, i.e. printing only the most complex geometry on a preform for which conventional machining is the most optimal choice. However, this approach requires both expertise and technological tools.

The Institut de Soudure supports its partners in the transition from parts manufactured using conventional processes to ARC-FIL additive manufacturing. We will present the approach, the challenges, the difficulties and the results of one of these studies on a concrete case.

For DED, as for other FA processes, Siemens offers a digital chain that encompasses part design, machine programming, thermomechanical process simulation, the hardware that drives the machines, and the hardware and infrastructure to extract and process data on the shop floor and in the cloud.

After a presentation of Additive Manufacturing activities in Normandy (platform - training - expertise), come and discover and discuss with the DEMGY Group company the different solutions for finishing parts made using additive manufacturing (polymers). A presentation of the FAN platform's research areas will also be given, with a view to identifying possible future collaborations.

From taking measurements using the most modern technical resources to manufacturing using additive manufacturing technologies, how can we build a relevant response to the key issues and developments in the equine industry to ensure excellence in competition while preserving the well-being of the horse and the comfort of the rider.
