News from the AM scene with Philipp Süß from Ingenieurbüro Süß & Friends on the transition to AM series production.
Philipp Süß
Many companies have gained initial experience with additive manufacturing (AM), for example in prototyping. However, the transition to series production often remains difficult. This presentation is aimed at companies that would like to expand AM further but have not yet taken the next step. There will also be valuable new insights for experienced users.
An often overlooked point is that getting a "no" to using AM for a component is just as valuable as getting a "yes". Early clarity helps to save money and time and prevents promising components from not being implemented. Since machine manufacturers, dealers and print service providers have a vested interest in the positive evaluation of AM, it is important to make objective and well-founded decisions. In this presentation, Philipp Süß shares practical experience and shows how companies can avoid typical mistakes when evaluating new components. The presentation is particularly aimed at companies that want to work with print service providers instead of investing in their own equipment. Süß explains how AM can be effectively and economically integrated into existing production processes.
Biography Philipp Süß:
Philipp Süß is an expert in the field of Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) and specialized early on in the application of the technology beyond rapid prototyping. He recognized that AM is a powerful tool, but its potential can only be fully exploited through sound engineering knowledge. In the early years of his career, he developed mathematical material models to simulate the performance of additively manufactured components as well as a method for cleaning and smoothing internal fluid channels in AM components. In addition, he is intensively involved in research on the implementation of the digital spare parts warehouse, a concept for the digital storage and rapid provision of spare parts. After several years as a project manager in an AM company, where he introduced the technology to various industries, he founded Süß & friends, an independent engineering and design agency, in 2017. Süß & friends supports companies in the development of products that utilize the full potential of additive manufacturing. His advice is particularly sought after by companies looking to make the transition from prototyping to series production and seeking an independent perspective.
