Dr. Bourell began his presentation by defining additive manufacturing as the ability to print three-dimensional (3D) objects. The technology has been in existence for 20 or 30 years and is undergoing ...

Researchers have developed a new 3D printing technique that allows the printing of whole objects while controlling the ...

Additive manufacturing (AM) encompasses a suite of layer-by-layer fabrication techniques that enable the rapid production of complex geometries from digital models. Central to the industrial adoption ...

Additive manufacturing of tool steels encompasses a family of layer-wise processes that transform metallic powders into complex near-net-shape dies, moulds and tooling components. Key techniques ...

Although additive manufacturing has already played an integral part in the creation of drones, there is a new trend ...

Additive manufacturing has a distinct materials advantage when it comes to producing a component or part from either a polymer or metal printer versus traditional subtractive manufacturing techniques.

If you imagine how a bee might build a honeycomb, then you understand the basic premise for how additive manufacturing works, according to Robert Willig, CEO of the Society of Manufacturing Engineers, ...

Aenne Koester, head of additive engineering and manufacturing at Lufthansa Technik Additive manufacturing already prints tens of thousands of polymer parts for major MROs every year. The technique ...

This workshop will explore opportunities to use statistical and data-driven methods for additive manufacturing qualification, including approaches that enhance dimensional accuracy and recent advances ...

When you board an airplane, put your bags in the overhead compartment, sit down in your seat and buckle your seatbelt, you probably do not pay much attention to the hinges, brackets, seat spreaders, ...

Although artificially created metamaterials probably won't reach large-scale commercialization for 10 years or so, some are already appearing in niche applications like electronics, communications, ...

The Nadcap® program – which provides critical process accreditations of suppliers in the aviation, defense, and space industries – is developing a new Task Group for Additive Manufacturing (AM). The ...
