Additive Manufacturing, often associated with the term “3D-printing”, consists of a group of technologies with major innovative potential that is transforming the way in which we conceive, design and manufacture products.
At the end of this learning unit participants will be able to:
- Classify the processes: mention the types of technologies
- List advantages and disadvantages
- Indicate challenges and opportunities. State of the
technology
Additive Manufacturing is currently one of the most important fields and one that is forecast to undergo significant growth and development as one of the key processes of advanced manufacturing.
