本文的目的是通过探索麦克马斯特大学工程实践与技术学院开发的网络物理系统中心的应用研究和教育活动，确定将增材制造（AM）集成到学习工厂（LF）中的机遇和挑战。在研究方面，本文介绍了使用包括AM和传统制造工艺的混合制造环境的3D打印部件的相关方面。在教育方面，本文解决了一个问题，如何教育未来的专家谁将在工业上的AM技术生产的零件。本文介绍了LF环境，允许本科生进行包括AM技术的顶点项目;允许研究生为他们的研究生论文进行AM实验;并允许学术和工业合作伙伴进行可行性研究，制造零件，进行质量控制测量，并解决基础和工业赞助的研究项目。
The purpose of the paper is to identify the opportunities and tackle the challenges of integrating Additive Manufacturing (AM) in a Learning Factory (LF) by exploring the applied research and education activities that take place in the Cyber-Physical Systems Centre developed at McMaster University in the School of Engineering Practice and Technology. On the research aspect, the paper presents aspects related to 3D printing parts using a hybrid manufacturing environment that includes AM and traditional manufacturing processes. On the educational aspect, the paper addresses a question on how to educate the future specialists who will work in industry on AM technologies for the production of parts. The paper describes the LF environment that allows undergraduate to carry out capstone projects that include AM technologies; allows graduate students to carry out AM experiments for their graduate theses; and allows academic and industrial partners to carry out feasibility studies, manufacture parts, conduct quality control measurements, and tackle basic and industrial sponsored research projects.
