DMTC is proud to be sponsoring the 2012 Manufacturing Innovations in Laser Additive Manufacture.
Laser additive technology is providing profitable solutions to today’s manufacturing challenges in a range of industries such as aerospace, medical, automotive and defence. These stem from the many and unique properties that lasers offer compared to other additive technologies in terms of their power, wavelength, power density and nature of operation.
This workshop aims to bring together industry professionals, engineers, researchers and equipment and material suppliers to hear the latest developments and trends in laser additive technology and applications such as Selective Laser Melting, Laser Metal Deposition and Laser Sintering from invited academic, research and industry speakers.
Sessions will focus on laser technology for manufacture of functional components, repair/refurbishment for re-manufactured parts, materials used, design for the manufacture, testing and evaluation of manufactured components.
Who Should Attend? – Manufacturing Engineers and Managers – Process/R&D Engineers – Applications Engineers – Maintenance Supervisors – Precision Parts Specialists

DMTC is supporting a workshop on Virtual Welding on 24th and 25th November at the University of Wollongong. This is a hands on workshop which looks at the use of advanced virtual prototyping to provide and enhanced understanding of the welding process of metals and their behaviour during that process. The software tools VISUAL and SYSWELD from ESI Group will be used within the course.
This workshop will be conducted by lecturer Dr Lex Mulcahy from Pacific ESI. Dr Mulcahy is a long time user of virtual prototyping and is involved in several DMTC projects, as well as several CRC-ACS projects, and one ARC project with UNSW.
Please contact Damian McGuckin on 02 8571 0847 for further details.
AusAMRC in partnership with the DMTC is offering a series of free of charge robot training workshops for industry, utilising the newly established robot facility at Swinburne University of Technology.
Co-sponsored by the Office of Australian Industry Capability (OAIC) at Boeing and the Defence Material Organisation (DMO), training programs are scheduled to take place on:
September 21st–23rd – Automated Inspection & Reverse Engineering via Robotics
October 26th–28th – Automated Feature & Part Picking, Inspection & Reverse Engineering via Robotics
