Engineering news
Engineering has a wealth of technologies and systems that are making a vital contribution, but we all have a responsibility to ensure our operations are as sustainable as possible.
Join the Sustainability in Engineering webinar series (26-30 September) to get up to date on the latest advances, and learn some techniques to build a cleaner, greener tomorrow.
Here are five ways that the online Engineering Futures event can help make your organisation more sustainable. Register for free here.
Create greener parts
Join Tasos Pantelis, European project engineer at Protolabs, to learn how to choose the most sustainable route for your parts and products. Factors covered will include embedded energy, how much material to use, in-service sustainability, lightweighting and recycling.
Use additive manufacturing for sustainability goals
Additive manufacturing intersects with sustainability on several different fronts. Join Claudia Galdini from HP to learn how you can leverage the design capabilities of 3D printing to reduce raw material waste while improving performance, and find out about the recycling and end-of-life options for printed parts.
Re-engineer for sustainability
Sometimes you need to go back to the beginning to make your product as sustainable as possible. Tom Festa from Recharged Heritage and Harvey Leach from Veracity Oxford will discuss re-engineering for the circular economy and sustainable product lifecycle design in their session.
Use life-cycle analysis to develop more sustainable products
What is life-cycle analysis and how can it be used to boost sustainability? Find out at the session from Steve Lewis-Brammer and Stephen Dyson from Protolabs, who will share the findings of a workshop held with the Design Council. Identifying common problems and the solutions to overcome them, this webinar will help you bring more sustainable solutions to fruition.
Overcome ‘net zero’ challenges
The world we have created over the last 150 years is based around massive consumption of fossil fuels, and to meet the 2050 climate change objectives we must switch to low-carbon sources. This session from Peter Flinn, past president of the IMechE, will review progress to date and identify issues that are critical to the success of the net zero sustainability enterprise.
