MME 9651 Assignment 1

This document outlines an assignment for an additive manufacturing course. It provides 3 questions for students to answer: 1) Create a 1-slide PowerPoint presentation describing an application of additive manufacturing and record a 3-minute presentation about it. 2) Complete a table comparing the 7 main additive manufacturing processes in terms of bonding mechanism, materials used, feedstock, material distribution, and typical applications. 3) For parts made of electric steel using powder-based additive manufacturing, discuss the ideal orientation to minimize supports and the best orientation to enhance strength for a part under an applied load. Students must submit their recording and a 5-page maximum report by the due date.

MME 9651 – Additive Manufacturing

Assignment 1
Additive Manufacturing Processes
Due on October 05, 2021

Q1: Three Minutes of Additive Manufacturing


You are a Manufacturing Engineer in an additive manufacturing company, and your company has
decided to expand their customer base. Therefore, your director has asked you to choose only one
particular application for additive manufacturing and describe it in Three Minutes.
Follow these steps:
➢ Prepare one PowerPoint slide about this application using the attached template.
➢ Go to the “Slide Show” menu in PowerPoint, then choose “Record Slide Show”.
➢ Start recording your slide in three minutes only. Recordings that exceed three minutes will
not be accepted.
➢ Save your recording as (.pptx) and confirm that it is working.

Q2: Additive Manufacturing Processes


In a table form, compare the seven standard additive manufacturing processes in terms of:
a. Bonding mechanism
b. Types of materials processed
c. Forms of feedstock
d. Material distribution mechanism
e. Typical application

Q3: Design for Additive Manufacturing


The following 3D model represents the rotor and stator of an electric motor Stator
made of electric steel. You have decided to produce these parts using a
powder-based additive manufacturing process.
a. What will be the ideal orientation to minimize supports? Rotor
b. If this motor carries an applied load as shown, what will be the best
orientation to enhance the motor strength? Why? Load

Instructions
➢ You should answer Q1 using the attached (.pptx) template.
➢ You should answer Q2 and Q3 in a report of maximum 5 pages including cover page and
references. All sources must be cited in the text when you refer to, summarize, paraphrase,
or quote from the open literature. A list of references is expected at the end of your report.
➢ Submit the recording (.pptx) and report (.pdf) on OWL no later than 8:00 PM Eastern Time
on October 5, 2021.
