Through our partnerships with SOLIDWORKS and Forecast 3D, we’re bringing you even more ways to outpace the competition with Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM).

Print your parts, thanks to Forecast 3D

As SolidProfessor members practice their skills with DfAM, they can have one of their designs printed on a state-of-the-art HP MJF printer for free thanks to our partners at Forecast 3D*. These Multi Jet Fusion printers use fusing and detailing to create complex, functional parts with mechanical properties, without the constraints of traditional manufacturing. Forecast 3D will be using the world’s largest installation of these cutting-edge printers to produce these designs. Here’s how it works:
    1. Complete our Design for Additive Manufacturing course
    2. Score 80% or higher on the course review test to earn a Technical Certificate
