The training is intended for technology or engineering teachers to expand their knowledge about the production technologies of the things around us and the materials needed for production. During the training, competencies will be developed to assess the properties of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, the possibilities of using 3D imaging and additive manufacturing in the learning process, and to define environmentally friendly alternatives for banknote protection, book printing, and packaging production technologies. Competencies are developed during theoretical and practical sessions.
By analyzing practical examples and completing tasks, you will become familiar with: - the composition, structure and properties of ferrous and non-ferrous metals; - the application of additive manufacturing in the learning process; - the prospects of robotics; - banknote security, book printing and packaging production technologies; - the possibilities of creating and applying 3D images.
