Postprocessing in additive technologies

The aim of the course is to acquaint students with post-processing modifications of 3D printed models from metal, polymer and composite materials. Specifically, it will be the possibility of machining and grinding of functional surfaces, welding, painting, painting, gluing and tumbling. The student will gain an overview of finishing technologies that affect the quality and appearance of printed prototypes.
