A group of experts from Rusatom - Additive Technologies (RusAT LLC, part of the Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL) completed training in the advanced training program "Advanced additive manufacturing technologies" at the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech).
The event was organized for specialists implementing additive technologies (AT) in various technological processes. During the training, participants reviewed the market of modern 3D printing technologies along with national and international standards in the field of AT.
Special attention was paid to the development of CAD-models (Computer-Aided Design, computer 3D modeling), methods of 3D products research, as well as printed parts processing and improving their characteristics by applying protective coatings.
The practical block of the event included, in particular, creation of a 3D model of the product and analysis of the structure and mechanical properties of samples obtained by 3D printing.
The participation of RusAT LLC in this program facilitated the exchange of experience in the field of additive technologies between the industry integrator and the country's innovative university.
Reference
Russian industry faces the goal of ensuring technological sovereignty and transition to the latest technologies in the shortest time possible. The state and large national companies are channeling resources to speed up the development of the domestic research, infrastructure, scientific and technological base. The introduction of innovations and new high-tech equipment allows Rosatom and its enterprises to occupy new niches in the market, increasing the competitiveness of the nuclear industry and the entire Russian industry as a whole.
