Powered by cloud-based design tools, real-time collaboration and advanced materials, additive manufacturing has moved beyond prototyping. Manufacturers are reshaping product design and meeting shop floor demands through full-scale production.
The central theme uniting the articles in this eBook on driving value through additive manufacturing, is the growing shift of additive manufacturing from a prototyping tool to a viable solution for production at scale. Supporting this trend is a range of supporting trends—including the shift towards more flexible and efficient manufacturing methods, leveraging AM to produce parts in quantities ranging from one to a few hundred, and advancements in 3D printing materials. These ideas, along with the role of metrology tools and techniques, converge to close the manufacturing loop.
