Sommario/riassunto

This book is a comprehensive guide to additive manufacturing (AM) product development. It offers a practical, reader-friendly approach to integrating the stages of product development. It covers current design and manufacturing strategies with a step-by-step approach, divided into three pillars: design, processes, and applications. This book addresses the challenges hindering the industrial application of AM and provides a roadmap for its successful implementation. It discusses specific AM case studies and hybrid AM cell and production line setups, with the goal of achieving high-quality, low-cost products that are both flexible and productive. The book concludes with an examination of Industry 4.0 capabilities in decentralized manufacturing. It is aimed to be read by researchers and professionals in industry who are interested in the development and potential of additive manufacturing, and will help to lead to wider adoption of AM.
