Careers in Additive Manufacturing
Before starting a manufacturing run, the data required for production must be prepared. During manufacturing, the equipment must be monitored. Once the cycle is complete, the parts are retrieved, inspected, and undergo the necessary post-manufacturing operations.
Additive manufacturing thus involves several successive skill sets. In the DEMGY Group plants involved in this activity, these skills are part of an industrial organization that goes beyond simply using a 3D printer.
What types of jobs are there in additive manufacturing at the DEMGY Group?
This activity involves many operations at different stages of manufacturing: digital preparation, production monitoring, part retrieval, inspection, and finishing.
What does a typical day look like in Additive manufacturing?
The work begins before manufacturing starts with the digital preparation required to move to production.
Next comes the launch and monitoring of the manufacturing process. This monitoring ensures that the operations within the role proceed smoothly.
At the end of the cycle, the work continues. Parts must be retrieved before the inspection and finishing stages.
These operations require different skill sets. However, their distribution among production, preparation, methods, industrialization, or engineering must correspond to the actual organizational structure of each plant involved.
Where are Additive manufacturing activities carried out?
Additive manufacturing activities are centralized at the DEMGY 3D Workshop, located on the DEMGY Normandie campus in Saint-Aubin-sur-Gaillon.
The workshop combines powder bed fusion and filament deposition. The equipment includes two EOS P 810 stations for selective Laser sintering (SLS), one HP Jet Fusion 4200 station, and one 9TLABS machine for the fabrication of continuous-fiber composites.
