Its ability to form both simple and intricate shapes through computer-controlled graphics enables it to create a niche in the manufacturing sector. Key challenges remain, and a great deal of research is required to develop 3D printing technology for all classes of materials including polymers, metals, ceramics, and composites. In view of the growing importance of 3D manufacturing worldwide, this Special Issue aims to seek original articles to further assist in the development of this promising technology from both scientific and technological perspectives. Targeted reviews, including mini-reviews, are also welcome, as they play a crucial role in educating students and young researchers.History of engineering and technologybicsscmicrostructurereversed austenitecorrosion behavioradvanced X-ray computed tomography (XCT)additive manufacturingforming defectssingle strutwear propertiesthermodynamic behaviorlaser deposition weldingtitanium alloysSLM structure performanceporosityformation mechanismmagnesiumpart redesignforming morphologymicrohardnessbonding qualityelectron beam meltingmechanical propertiesframe structure reconstructionaging behaviouraluminum matrix compositesSelective Laser Melting (SLM)maraging steeltailored blanksselective laser meltingselective laser melting (SLM)3D printingTi6Al4VHistory of engineering and technologyGupta Manoj522031ScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK99103675683033213D Printing of Metals: A Reprint of Articles from the Special Issue Published in the Journal "Applied Sciences"4319521UNINA
