22 October 2014, 13:30 - 13:45 Seats 2 meet, Eindhoven Daan A.J. Kersten MSc, MBA

Welcome and introduction

Daan A.J. Kersten MSc, MBA In 2012 Daan founded, together with Jonas Wintermans, Additive Industries, a high tech company industrialising 3D printing for functional parts in various metals. The ambition of Additive Industries is to bring additive manufacturing and 3D printing from lab to fab and allow the high tech manufacturing industry to capitalise on the opportunities additive manufacturing has to offer in creating lighter, compact, integrated, more complex products & parts with better thermal performance/ characteristics. Daan has been at the helm of several companies, some of them from the start. His heart beats for the high tech manufacturing industry and open innovation in the supply chain. In the evening hours, Daan is a board member and initiator of NextOEM, an accelerator program for young high tech companies.

Drivers for industrial applications of Additive Manufacturing @ ASML

Abstract

At ASML we have been using the benefits of additive manufacturing since 2008 in order to improve several crucial aspects like the performance of fast high precision stages and its motion control. Conventional machining of parts is limiting the design freedom and thus also performance of our systems. By introducing AM in combination with topology optimization, a substantial performance gain can be achieved in the field of dynamics, lightweight design and thermal control. In addition, the flexibility of AM makes it possible to integrate hundreds of parts in an assembly in a single monolithic printed part which leads to reduced assembly time and lower failure rates and ultimately reduced costs.
In this presentation we will present how ASML can benefit from AM and how we have secured the knowledge and competence building at ASML.

Fred de Vreede Fred de Vreede is design engineer for atmospheric stages in the Mechanical Development department of ASML. Fred is currently cooperating in a research project realizing a next step in accuracy for future wafer stages. Fred studied Mechanical Engineering at the Delft University with specialty precision engineering. Before ASML Fred worked for 5 years at the development department for television cameras at Philips and for 15 years at TNO industries from which the last 5 year within the rapid prototyping department.

Unlocking the (unknown) potential: Design for Additive Manufacturing, principles & process

Abstract

Additive Manufacturing (AM) offers breakthrough possibilities to create light weight, free form, customized and integrated products and parts with improved thermal performance. However in order to unlock the potential, the key needs to be found in a dedicated design for AM. Instead of removing material by milling or any other subtractive method, a printer adds it only where it is beneficial to the end-product. Also, no product specific tooling, like molds, is required. This brings formerly unachievable commercial as well as technological solutions within reach. Rein van der Mast will offer you a pragmatic assessment method to scout AM potential and decide where AM will improve your product or add to your business case.

Rein van der Mast Rein van der Mast is Manager Design & Engineering at Additive Industries and AddLab since its inception. Being one of the true early adopters of additive manufacturing, Rein has already since 1996 been involved as a designer in numerous projects related to 3D printing and industrial additive manufacturing and prototyping. On a daily basis, Rein works with the partners in AddLab to close the current gab between the potential of AM and (dormant) market needs and collaboratively improve issues related to design and engineering.

Topology Optimization: The key to successful design for Additive Manufacturing

Abstract

Due to its high geometrical freedom additive manufacturing technologies offer a significant potential for lightweight applications, especially in the field of aviation. Yet, process specific restrictions and guidelines for the design, especially for metallic lightweight structures, are only marginally spread. Time and cost intensive iteration cycles until a process stable part manufacturing and an only insufficient use of the freedom in design can be the result. Addressing these shortcomings the presentation will show a DFM approach for LAM based on the VDI 2221. Supporting the designer in load and manufacturing suitable solutions by the implementation of DFM guidelines, structural biomimetic and topology optimization is the focus of this approach. The whole design process is covered and specifically supported by the implementation of LAM design guidelines. The presented approach will be shown by a demonstrator part.

Jannes Kranz Jannis Kranz graduated from the Technische Universität Hamburg-Harburg (TUHH) with a Diploma degree (2010) in Product Development. At present he is pursuing a PhD at the Institute of Laser and System Technologies at the TUHH. His research focusses on lightweight design and design guidelines for Laser Additive Manufacturing.
