Introduction

3D Additive Manufacturing (AM), which involves building objects layer-by-layer, is one of the most sought-after manufacturing technologies today for high-value engineering applications. This technology offers numerous advantages, including design flexibility and variety suited for high-mix, low-volume production settings. It enables the creation of intricate objects with internal features that would be difficult or impossible to achieve through traditional manufacturing processes such as moulding, casting, forging, or machining. Additionally, 3D AM requires minimal assembly for moving parts. As a tool-less manufacturing process, it provides faster lead times for complex and customised products. All systems within the 3D AM umbrella operate on the fundamental principle of constructing 3D objects layer-by-layer based on each layer’s cross-sectional area.

SIMTech's Additive Manufacturing courses provide a comprehensive understanding of the concepts and fundamentals of 3D AM. These courses cover the principles, methodologies, and applications of specific 3D AM systems, along with essential post-processing techniques for AM products. This knowledge is critical for identifying the most suitable 3D AM technology to manufacture customised and complex 3D parts. The training sessions aim to enhance participants' awareness and interest in adopting 3D AM, equipping them with new skills, knowledge, and technical expertise to remain relevant and competitive in the industry.

Why These Courses

  • Designed to meet the specific demands of the Singapore industry
  • Delivered by experts in 3D additive manufacturing, both in technology and business
  • Highly practical and intensive

Participants will engage with the latest knowledge and current technologies through industrial case studies and facilitated discussions about integrating and implementing AM within their organisations.

Who Should Attend

These courses are intended for professionals, managers, executives, and technicians involved in testing, design, processes, production, reliability, and quality improvement in various manufacturing industries. Target sectors include aerospace, biomedical technology, medical devices, electronics, precision engineering, automotive, and general manufacturing.

List of Modules under the Additive Manufacturing Specialisation

For All Modules

Upon Completion of Each Module

Participants will be awarded with a Statement of Attainment (SOA) certificate for each individual module, if they meet the following criteria:

  • Achieve at least 75% course attendance;
  • Take all assessments; and
  • Pass the course.

Sample of a Statement of Attainment (SOA) as shown below:
SSG SOA

The name printed on the Statement of Attainment (SOA) issued by SkillsFuture Singapore is the Skills Standard title, such as a Technical Skills and Competency (TSC) title, rather than the course title. This is because the SOA is aligned with the national Skills Framework, ensuring consistent recognition across industries and among employers. While the course title describes the learning experience, the SOA certifies the specific nationally recognised competency attained.

Pre-Requisites

  • Applicants should possess a degree in any discipline or a diploma with a minimum of 3 years of related working experience.
  • Applicants who do not have the required academic qualifications are still welcome to apply, but shortlisted candidates may be required to attend an interview for special approval.
  • Proficiency in written and spoken English.
