Printing and Design (IT-803 (C)) - Important Questions

  1. Unit 414 Marks High Priority

    Explain the design considerations for additive manufacturing equipment and discuss the key process parameters that control part quality and dimensional accuracy.

    Core topic from Unit 4; directly matches heatmap entry 'Additive manufacturing equipment: design and process parameters'. High priority for exam preparation.

  2. Unit 410 Marks High Priority

    Discuss the governing bonding mechanisms in additive manufacturing (e.g., fusion, sintering, polymer welding) and explain how these mechanisms influence the mechanical properties of printed parts.

    Core topic from Unit 4; directly matches heatmap entry 'Governing bonding mechanisms'. High priority for exam preparation.

  3. Unit 47 Marks Medium Priority

    Describe experimental design and optimization methods (for example, Taguchi method and Design of Experiments) used to optimize process parameters in additive manufacturing. Give examples of objective functions commonly used.

    Important applied topic in Unit 4; common examination focus on optimization techniques for process parameters.

  4. Unit 47 Marks Medium Priority

    Compare and contrast powder bed fusion and directed energy deposition systems in terms of equipment architecture, process parameters, material suitability, advantages, and limitations.

    Equipment-focused comparative question relevant to Unit 4; frequently asked to test understanding of system architectures.

  5. Unit 47 Marks Medium Priority

    Explain the material selection criteria for polymer, metal, and ceramic additive manufacturing processes and discuss how material properties affect the choice of process parameters.

    Materials-selection is a standard Unit 4 topic linking material properties to process settings; asked occasionally.

  6. Unit 47 Marks Medium Priority

    Illustrate common post-processing techniques for additive manufactured parts (such as heat treatment, machining, surface finishing) and analyze their effects on mechanical properties and surface quality.

    Post-processing is a common subtopic in Unit 4; understanding effects on properties is frequently tested.

  7. Unit 410 Marks Medium Priority

    Analyze the non-destructive testing (NDT) methods and in-situ monitoring techniques used for quality control in additive manufacturing. Discuss advantages and limitations of each technique.

    Quality assurance and monitoring are increasingly important Unit 4 topics; asked to assess inspection and in-situ control methods.

  8. Unit 47 Marks Medium Priority

    Discuss maintenance practices, calibration procedures, and safety considerations for operating industrial additive manufacturing equipment in a production environment.

    Operational and practical aspects of Unit 4; safety and maintenance questions evaluate readiness for industrial deployment.
