FUNDAMENTALS OF METALLURGY AND ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING NSW BRANCH TRAINING WORKSHOP - ONLINE- 17-19 AUGUST 2022 | DAY 1 2:00PM-6:00PM | DAY 2 2:00PM-6:00PM | DAY 3 9:00AM-6:30PM AEST | Metals and alloys are used in the greatest variety of applications of all engineering materials. As such it is essential for those involved in manufacturing, engineering, and construction to have an understanding of what metals (ferrous and nonferrous) are, how they behave, and why they behave differently than ceramics, glass, and plastics. It is also important to understand how they can be made stronger, how they can be shaped by casting, forging, forming, and how these processes along with heat treatment can alter properties. This course provides important basic knowledge to those who are not metallurgists.

TOPICS Topics may include: • Introduction to Metals and Alloys • Solidification of Metals • Metal Forming • Mechanical Properties • Strengthening Mechanisms • Failure Analysis • Heat Treatment • Strengthening Steels & Cast Iron • Materials Characterization

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

Upon completion of this course, you should be able to: • Describe how metals and alloys are formed and why • Recognise how metals can be strengthened by alloying, cold-working, and heat treatment • Determine why metals and alloys are not behaving as expected and can be made to behave as needed • Choose what metal or alloy to use for its specific combinations of properties • Comprehend the most common metal additive manufacturing methods

• Metal Processing Personnel • Engineers who need to gain a better understanding of metals and alloys. • QA Managers • Heat Treating Operators & Managers • Component Designers • Technicians • Marketing, Technical Writers, Purchasers and individuals without a materials background who wish to better understand the role of materials science
