What happens when an AM part fails? Curious to learn more about how to avoid common failures before they occur? This ASME and Siemens Energy course partnership explores failure modes of laser powder bed fusion prints, covering the root cause and analysis of unique use cases—with a focus on avoiding future defects.

Uncover and resolve operation-specific issues related to laser powder bed fusion failures. Learn how to discuss failure modes of LBPF printing technologies and what happens when a manufactured part comes out of the machine with unintended results. Participants will be analyzing various parts and conducting a quick root-cause analysis—implementing quick assessment strategies of the defect to focus in and investigate. Watch as subject matter experts demonstrate common and unique examples of multiple failure modes, while discussing ways to avoid future failures and mistakes.

Siemens Energy and ASME are partnering to work towards scaling workforce development across the field of engineering. ASME’s agile course development, educational technology and learning science expertise—combined with Siemens broad AM know-how and experience—will enhance ASME’s Learning & Development course offerings.

As a result, the engineering community will benefit from an expansive body of subject-matter expertise, rooted in more than 10 years of scalable serial production experience in AM. All aspects of AM design, materials, and processes will be covered while connecting the AM ecosystem via Siemens to simplify the collaboration process and streamline new production processes.

By participating in this course, you will learn how to successfully:

Discuss efficient AM design methods to reduce iterations and minimize print risks
Think critically to perform root cause analysis on a failed print
Identify quick assessment strategies of print defects
Analyze use cases to minimize print risks

Who should attend?

Engineering teams at design and manufacturing firms, as well as individuals.
Early to mid-career engineers, including design engineers, materials engineers, manufacturing engineers, and others with an interest in design for additive manufacturing with metals.

Course participants are expected to:

Have fundamental engineering knowledge
Basic to intermediate understanding of LPBF technology (laser, powder, melt layer-by-layer)
General understanding of manufacturing and traditional manufacturing processes (i.e., machining/milling, casting, forging)
Understanding of the process chain of laser powder bed fusion
Some experience working in the manufacturing industry is ideal

This ASME Virtual Classroom course is held live with an instructor on our online learning platform.

Certificate of completion will be issued to registrants who successfully attend and complete the course.

Instructor

Michael Hajduk is a research and development engineer at Siemens Energy’s Additive Manufacturing Technology team, where he works on topics regarding metal AM design optimization and mechanical integrity of L-PBF manufactured parts.

Since 2018, together with his team, he has developed training and education solutions for Siemens engineers and customers who are starting their metal AM journey.

Jan Bogner works as a research and development engineer at Siemens Energy’s Additive Manufacturing Technology team in Berlin, Germany. His field of expertise are within material and process development for Laser Powder-Bed Fusion, where his main research focuses on the understanding and adjustment of process parameters and exposure strategies to increase the material portfolio for industrial additive manufacturing.

Aside his research he co-created and hosts the Siemens Energy Additive Manufacturing training and education program for internal and external customers to share the “lessons learned” of over 10 years of industrial AM.
