Siemens NX AM training:
Multi-Axis Deposition & NX Basics

Training objective

This course teaches you how to use the Multi-Axis Deposition NX module for 2D, 3D and simultaneous applications for application processes such as LMD, DED, WAAM and FDM. These technologies can be applied using both axis-controlled and robot-controlled operations. Using real-life examples, we will demonstrate how to perform the various operations effectively and in a process-driven way. After completing these 2 days of basic training in the Siemens NX environment, you will be able to adapt workpieces, while taking into account the principles of designing for AM and design guidelines
