Online Maker Training through LinkedIn Learning

Online Maker Training through LinkedIn Learning

LinkedIn Learning (formerly Lynda.com) is a leading provider of online training video courses. The entire LinkedIn Learning library is available to the UMD community at no charge. While many of the LinkedIn Learning courses are focused on learning business applications such as Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets, there are a number of training modules on maker-related subjsts like 3d modeling in Autodesk Fusion 360, Designining for 3d Printing, and others.

To make use of LinkedIn Learning training material, you need to log in using your UMD directory ID and authenticate through the UMD sign on page. Since this material is somewhat hidden away, we've added this page to list LinkedIn Learning classes and videos that may be of interest. This page consists almost entirely of content taken from the LinkedIn Learning site and links directly to that site for viewing the lessons.

Course: Design for Additive Manufacturing: FDM

INSTRUCTOR: Kacie Hultgren

Length: 1h 47m Level: Beginner + Intermediate Released: 1/18/2018

Fused deposition modeling (FDM), also known as fused filament fabrication (FFF), is a common type of 3D printing. Whether you are using FDM for prototyping or producing end-use parts, a design for manufacturing process will ensure your parts are easy to manufacture on FDM printers. Join Kacie Hultgren for a comprehensive overview of FDM design principles. Optimize your parts by understanding key concepts like orientation, tolerance, and support material. Learn how to use programs such as Cura and MakerBot Print to visualize your design before 3D printing, and achieve accuracy, fit, and strength. In chapter eight, Kacie uses Fusion 360 to take you step by step through a sample project—a hinged box—that puts these design strategies into action.
