Additive Manufacturing: Application and Challenges
Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, creates objects by layering materials based on digital models. This innovative process enhances design flexibility, reduces waste, and accelerates production, revolutionizing industries from aerospace to healthcare by enabling complex, customized, and efficient manufacturing.
Applications of Additive Manufacturing
- Lightweight Components: Additive manufacturing (AM) allows for the production of complex, lightweight components that reduce aircraft weight and fuel consumption. For example, GE Aviation uses 3D-printed fuel nozzles in its LEAP engines.
- Rapid Prototyping: AM enables the rapid prototyping of aerospace parts, reducing the time from design to testing.
- Custom Implants and Prosthetics: Personalized implants and prosthetics can be created ....
