Ad­di­tion­al Qual­i­fic­a­tion in ‘Ad­dit­ive Man­u­fac­tur­ing Pro­cesses’: In­form­a­tion ses­sions for busi­nesses and ap­pren­tices

Location: Direct Manufacturing Research Center (DMRC), Mersinweg 3, Paderborn

Paderborn University and the East Westphalia Chamber of Industry and Commerce invite you to

Additive manufacturing (3D printing) is rapidly evolving from prototyping into a key industrial technology. Whether for mass production, spare parts, tools, or repair processes: more and more companies are harnessing the potential of industrial 3D printing to produce more flexibly and cost-effectively. To make the most of this potential, the skilled workers of tomorrow must possess specific skills. The ‘Direct Manufacturing Research Centre’ (DMRC) at Paderborn University, in cooperation with the East Westphalia Chamber of Industry and Commerce, is hosting two information sessions on the ‘Additive Manufacturing’ supplementary qualification within vocational training. They will take place on Tuesday, 15 September, and Thursday, 12 November, from 3 pm to 5 pm on both occasions, and are aimed at companies offering apprenticeships and apprentices themselves. Those interested can complete registration on the event page. Participation is free of charge.

The supplementary qualification in “Additive Manufacturing Processes” offers the opportunity to develop skills in this future-oriented technology at an early stage during vocational training. Trainees in industrial metalworking trades, in particular, stand to benefit from this qualification. At the same time, it gives training companies the chance to prepare their skilled workers specifically for the demands of modern production. During the information sessions, participants can learn about the content of the additional qualification and exchange ideas. In addition, a laboratory tour of the DMRC offers a close-up insight into industrial additive manufacturing. A case study from an industrial company is also on the programme.

About the DMRC

The DMRC brings together researchers from Paderborn University and leading industrial companies. They share the common goal of turning transformative additive manufacturing into a reliable, scalable, and competitive industrial process. Over more than 15 years, more than 30 researchers and engineers have carried out over 65 projects with industry partners. Further information is available on the DMRC website.
