In addition to the geometric freedom, additive manufacturing also provides the freedom to use metals that would be difficult to apply another way. Deka Research & Development is exploring both freedoms as it seeks to create a power source that could improve the lives of people around the world.
Read MorePanel Discusses Promise and Challenges of Both Additive and Hybrid Machines
Manufacturers ranging from orbital to underground shared their thoughts on additive manufacturing at the recent Innovation Days event.
Read More6 Things You Might Not Know about Making Metal Parts through Additive Manufacturing
Like any other manufacturing process, additive manufacturing has process considerations all its own.
Read MoreThe Changing Shape of Manufacturing
Topology optimization and additive manufacturing go together. The complex, organic form that might be the most material-efficient choice for a part generally cannot be produced conventionally. However, additive manufacturing puts optimal forms within reach.
Read MoreAdditive’s Idiosyncrasies
Additive manufacturing is not as easy as just hitting “print.” Like any manufacturing process, it demands attention to considerations that are characteristic of this process alone.
Read MoreMaterial Strength Affects Part Weight in Additive Manufacturing
Material properties will have even more significance in additive manufacturing than in previous part-making processes. Taking advantage of the strength of one material over another can permit an internal redesign that reduces the weight and cost of the part.
