Yet many organisations still overlook its potential or consider it unsuitable for real production. \nIn this webinar\, we explore what manufacturers are missing by not integrating metal additive manufacturing into their production strategy. The session will highlight practical advantages such as design freedom\, part consolidation\, performance optimisation\, reduced lead times\, and supply-chain resilience. Real-world examples will demonstrate where metal AM delivers clear technical and commercial value\, and where it may not. \nParticipants will gain a clear understanding of how metal AM complements conventional manufacturing\, common misconceptions that prevent adoption\, and key considerations for evaluating its feasibility in an industrial environment. This webinar is ideal for engineers\, technical managers\, and decision-makers seeking to future-proof their manufacturing processes and remain competitive in a rapidly evolving landscape. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nMetal AM complements traditional manufacturingy\nIgnoring metal AM creates hidden costs\nAssessing part suitability\, requirements\, and ROI is essential before investing in metal AM\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Mechanical Engineering and is particularly found in the following courses: \n\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Mechanical Engineering\n52884WA Advanced Diploma of Mechanical Engineering Technology\n52914WA Graduate Certificate in Mechatronics\nGraduate Certificate in Mechanical Engineering\nGraduate Diploma of Engineering (Mechanical)\n\nAbout the presenter\n \nDr. Ehsan Foroozmehr\, EIT Lecturer and Director of E-Metal3D\n\nDr. Ehsan Foroozmehr is an accomplished mechanical and manufacturing engineer with over 20 years of international experience in advanced manufacturing technologies.

Each session will address specific\, technically focused topics relevant to professional engineers. \nWebinar details\nWhen an earth fault occurs\, but the current doesn’t seem to return through the expected path\, conventional wisdom fails. This webinar investigates the phenomenon of “floating” or unconventional earth faults in complex distribution networks. Participants will examine real case studies involving high-resistance grounding\, capacitive coupling\, and multiple earthing points that distort fault current paths. The session provides insights into detecting and resolving such anomalies using modern protection technologies and field diagnostics. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nUnderstand how non-standard earthing configurations influence fault current behaviour.\nExplore diagnostic tools and methods for identifying hidden or high-impedance earth faults.\nRecognize the impact of system capacitance and unbalanced grounding on fault detection.\nDevelop strategies for protection coordination in networks with complex earthing arrangements.\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Electrical Engineering and is particularly found in the following courses: \n\n52892WA Advanced Diploma of Electrical and Instrumentation (E&I) Engineering in Mining\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Circuit Breakers\, Switchgear & Power Transformers\nUET60222 Advanced Diploma of ESI – Power Systems (Australia & New Zealand Only)\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Power Distribution\nOnline – Bachelor of Science (Electrical Engineering)\nOnline – Master of Engineering (Electrical Systems)\n\nTo learn more about tuition fees\, please click here. \nAbout the presenter\n \nEmeritus Professor Akhtar Kalam \nBSc\, BScEng\, MS\, PhD\, FIET\, CEng\, FAIE\, FIEAust\, CPEng\, NER\, APEC Engineer\, IntPE(Aus)\, PEV\, MCIGRE\, Life Senior Member of IEEE. \nProfessor Akhtar Kalam is a supervisor of EIT’s Doctoral students.

Each session will address specific\, technically focused topics relevant to professional engineers. \nWebinar details\nSynchronising and load-sharing between generators should\, in theory\, be a textbook procedure. Yet\, in practice\, “perfect” machines sometimes refuse to cooperate. This webinar unravels a real-world case where identical generators failed to share the load equitably. Participants will explore the subtle interplay between governor characteristics\, voltage regulators\, system impedance\, and control loops that can lead to instability or the generation of circulating currents. The discussion emphasises analytical reasoning\, control coordination\, and field calibration to achieve stable parallel operation. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nAnalyse the principles of generator synchronisation\, droop characteristics\, and reactive power sharing.\nIdentify root causes of unequal load sharing and voltage instability during parallel operation.\nLearn practical field-testing and tuning methods to ensure balanced generator performance.\nUnderstand the role of communication and control systems in coordinated power generation.\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Electrical Engineering and is particularly found in the following courses: \n\n52892WA Advanced Diploma of Electrical and Instrumentation (E&I) Engineering in Mining\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Circuit Breakers\, Switchgear & Power Transformers\nUET60222 Advanced Diploma of ESI – Power Systems (Australia & New Zealand Only)\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Power Distribution\nOnline – Bachelor of Science (Electrical Engineering)\n\nTo learn more about tuition fees\, please click here. \nAbout the presenter\n \nEmeritus Professor Akhtar Kalam \nBSc\, BScEng\, MS\, PhD\, FIET\, CEng\, FAIE\, FIEAust\, CPEng\, NER\, APEC Engineer\, IntPE(Aus)\, PEV\, MCIGRE\, Life Senior Member of IEEE. \nProfessor Akhtar Kalam is a supervisor of EIT’s Doctoral students.
