Abstract

To apply new technologies in industry, it requires knowledge about the specific technology. Since a new technology, such as Additive Manufacturing (AM), enters the industry slow, the knowledge transfer must be supported. AM is capable to produce end user parts by serial production. To implement this new technology into industry an Experience Transfer Model (ETM) supports the transfer of knowledge from the academic environment to professional engineers in industry. This paper presents the concept of the ETM, which transfer experience knowledge about identification expertise and design expertise in three steps: Input of theory, implementation of the theoretical knowledge and reflection of the approach. The validation of the ETM with Swiss SME showed a successful implementation of experience knowledge.
