3T RPD will be hosting a rapid protyping seminar at the Rolls-Royce Factory of the Future in Rotherham on Wednesday 12th May 2010, supported by the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre with Boeing.

The full-day event will explain and demonstrate the applications, opportunities and benefits of using Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) and Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) throughout all stages of the product life cycle. The Seminar will demonstrate how SLS and DMLS technologies enable the cost-effective, fast and accurate production of durable and complex components, whilst negating the investment in conventional tooling. 3T's technical experts will be available to give advice on specific projects or help with any data issues or questions, and topics covered will include:- - Understanding SLS and DMLS to get the most out of them - The benefits you can achieve from the technologies - Applications that SLS and DMLS are good for, and those that they're not! - Constraints and opportunities - Materials and applications - Designing for the SLS and DMLS processes - Making sure your CAD data is of good quality - Production opportunities There is a registration fee of £45 per delegate, and bookings can be made online by visiting the seminars section at the link below or by emailing sue@3trpd.co.uk or contacting Sue Burnip on 01635 580284. Members of the Advanced Manufacturing Forum (AMF) can attend free of charge.
