Introduction to the Program
Thanks to this completely online Postgraduate certificate, you will master the latest post-processing tools to optimize the finish of printed parts”

In Additive Manufacturing, post-processing and finishing processes play an essential role in optimizing the parts produced. These procedures allow designers to correct imperfections generated during 3D printing and improve both the mechanical and aesthetic properties of the final product. The importance of these processes lies in their ability to transform a functional part into a high-quality product that meets the specific requirements of each industry. It is therefore essential that specialists stay at the forefront of the most sophisticated methodologies to ensure maximum precision, efficiency, and durability. Only then will they be able to adapt their designs to changing market needs and maximize the value of each project.
