Part 1: What is Additive Manufacturing? Additive Manufacturing (AM): Additive Manufacturing (AM), commonly referred to as 3D printing is a manufacturing process to form 3D physical parts from CAD DATA. In AM process, hundreds or thousands of layers come together to form the physical 3-dimensional part by means of either binders or direct energy deposited on the…
Additive Manufacturing Additive manufacturing is a specific 3D printing process where parts are built layer by layer by depositing material according to digital 3D design data. For example, instead of milling a workpiece from a solid block, additive manufacturing builds the part up layer by layer from raw material supplied as a fine powder. This technique is known as Powder Bed…
