“…The authors also recommend, as proposal for future studies, the creation of physical models for comparison with numerical results. In addition, the possibility of the use of 3D manufacturing can be applied to facilitate the construction of laboratory models, although studies of the mechanical proprieties and applications of polymer surfaces are still an open discussion in the literature [24].…”

“…ABS is an amorphous thermoplastic polymer that has been applied to the fabrication of rotary components in micro Organic Rankin Cycle (mORC) [ 11 , 36 ], pumps [ 13 , 37 , 38 , 39 ] and the rotor blades of drones [ 40 , 41 ]. Hernandez-Carrillo et al [ 11 ] studied the use of ABS impeller in the mORC.…”

Impellers are referred to as a core component of turbomachinery. The use of impellers in various applications is considered an integral part of the industry. So, increased performance and the optimization of impellers have been the center of attention of a lot of studies. In this regard, studies have been focused on the improvement of the efficiency of rotary machines through aerodynamic optimization, using high-performance materials and suitable manufacturing processes. As such, the use of polymers and polymer composites due to their lower weight when compared to metals has been the focus of studies. On the other hand, methods of the manufacturing process for polymer and polymer composite impellers such as conventional impeller manufacturing, injection molding and additive manufacturing can offer higher economic efficiency than similar metal parts. In this study, polymeric and polymer composites impellers are discussed and conclusions are drawn according to the manufacturing methods. Studies have shown promising results for the replacement of polymers and polymer composites instead of metals with respect to a suitable temperature range. In general, polymers showed a good ability to fabricate the impellers, however in more difficult working conditions considering the need for a substance with higher physical and mechanical properties necessitates the use of composite polymers. However, in some applications, the use of these materials needs further research and development.

“…A suitable selection of process parameters is essential for a product that depends on the requirements and end-use criteria [9]. The main applications of AM in the manufacturing industry include rapid prototyping, direct component development, rapid tooling, and reconstruction of metal component [10,11]. The evolution of AM minimizes the issue of inventory and shortens the supply chain.…”

In the era of Digital Manufacturing and supporting state-of-the-art, i.e. Additive manufacturing (AM) technology is getting more popular known as 3D printing, AM has created its own space in the fastest growing industry. 3D printing has evolved in previous years, and now, it is being used in several social life domains. The main application of this process has found in prototyping, aerospace industry, biomedical and dental implants. Additive manufacturing prints a part in a layer by layer or line by line pattern. It opposes the basic concept of traditional manufacturing. Advances in composite and multi-material manufacturing provide new opportunities for the convenient manufacture of lightweight parts and modern products, such as flapping wings, satellite brackets, and lightweight components for the aviation industry. It is a particular technology that varies from conventional and subtractive development in terms of lightweight, enhanced features, lower fuel consumption, and optimized machine performance, so on. This paper addressed the progress of AM in the aerospace field and addressed the issues of AM linked to a specific aerospace component.
