FDP Organizing Department: Technology Innovation & Development Foundation, IIT- Guwahati

Objective: This 5-day online workshop provides a comprehensive overview of Additive Manufacturing (AM) by integrating fundamental concepts, digital design tools, simulation techniques, and materialspecific applications. Delivered by academic experts and industry professionals, the program aims to strengthen both conceptual understanding and practical skills in modern AM technologies

Key themes of the workshop include:

• Introduction to Additive Manufacturing
• CAD Modelling & STL Preparation
• Simulation in Additive Manufacturing
• Metal & Powder-Based AM Technologies
• Biomedical Implant Design & AM Fabrication
• AM PravaH – Industry Interaction Sessions
• Pallet-Based & Hybrid AM Systems

Outcomes:

The FDP aims to enhance participants’ proficiency in experimental, simulation-based, and programming-oriented approaches for Additive Manufacturing. It provides foundational knowledge of AM processes, CAD and STL preparation, and MATLAB-based modelling techniques. The program introduces relevant FEA and CFD simulation methods, process optimization principles, and practical case studies in metal and biomedical AM. Participants will also gain exposure to condition monitoring practices and hybrid AM systems. Overall, the FDP strengthens research capabilities and prepares attendees for advanced work in modern manufacturing technologies.

Speakers: International/National Level Reputed Speakers.
