Webinar on "Recent Research and Development In Additive Manufacturing"

Department of Mechanical Engineering and Additive manufacturing zone of AJCE organised a Webinar on "Recent Research and Development in Additive Manufacturing" on 25^th June 2020. This webinar focused on the current research and development in the area of additive manufacturing technologies. The influence of additive manufacturing in the post COVID world was also an important topic of discussion in this webinar.

Additive Manufacturing Zone at Amal Jyothi, is a state- of –the- art facility where anyone can work on an idea and build a prototype using the concept of 3D printing, which would help them to figure out a potential market for their product. The general purpose of this LAB is to empower the Amal Jyothi students and staffs as well as the public to make what they cannot buy from shops.

The facility has potential for developing prototypes, fabrication of biomedical structures like hearing aids, prosthetics for the amputees and the disabled, toys and decorative products, demonstrative models for educational institutions etc. to name just a few.

Being a technology that is considered as a vital cog in the fourth industrial revolution, it’s always beneficial to understand and stay updated about the advancements in this field, which is ultimately the expected outcome of this webinar.
