The past few decades have seen substantial growth in Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies. However, this growth has mainly been process-driven. The evolution of engineering design to take advantage of the possibilities afforded by AM and to manage the constraints associated with the technology has lagged behind. This paper presents the major opportunities, constraints, and economic considerations for Design for Additive Manufacturing. It explores issues related to design and redesign for direct and indirect AM production. It also highlights key industrial applications, outlines future challenges, and identifies promising directions for research and the exploitation of AM's full potential in industry.Design, Manufacturing, Additive Manufacturing

“…Engine components, medical devices and manufacturing molds are some of the parts that can be manufactured through LOM. Previous work has demonstrated that LOM can successfully produce functional parts, for its dimensional accuracy, [8] and low surface average roughness in comparison with other AM techniques [9].…”

Influence of building orientation on the flexural strength of laminated object manufacturing specimens

et al. 2017

This paper aims to define the best building orientation for parts manufactured with the laminated object manufacturing technique (LOM), to enhance their flexural performance. Previous research has shown that parts manufactured with LOM have the ability to withstand higher deflections than components created through other layer manufacturing techniques, but, so far, no relation between the building orientation and flexural strength of parts has been assessed.Four types of specimens have been manufactured, each of them using a different building orientation. They have been tested in a fourloading-points machine to evaluate their failure mode, and extract a conclusion of the best building orientation towards flexural load. 45 degrees was found to be the best building orientation in terms of maximum load before failure. Furthermore, a repetitive failure pattern was found for each tested condition. It is confirmed that building orientation is a relevant parameter in LOM manufacturing with influence on the mechanical properties of parts.

“…Many 3D printer experts and scholars 11,12,13,14,15 have studied and reported on strategies for selecting suitable 3D printers based on a given design. They have either limited their investigations to professional users or restricted their research to 3D printer parameters and part accuracies.…”

This paper focuses on the deployment of a tool that will enable any category of end user to match their needs and product specifications to 3D printers by means of a webpage. Any user connected to a network can enter the CAD geometry and product specifications into a web based form to select the most appropriate 3D printer. The parameters that drive the selection of 3D printers have been inspired by the largest/biggest/most well-known 3D printer manufacturers. The purpose of the selection system is to display printer specification in a common format so users are able to make "apples to apples" comparisons. The resource and the database will continuously expand and improve the 3D printing pairing engine. The technology, techniques and methods of designing the 3D printer selection engine is reported in this paper.
