A Review of Product Design for Additive Manufacturing

Abstract:

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is the digital manufacturing technology by which products are fabricated directly from computer models by selectively curing, depositing or consolidating materials in successive layers. The technology has provided an opportunity to rethink the methods of product design to maximize the product performance through the synthesis of material compositions, structure, and sizes. This overview is created to relate the unique capabilities of AM technologies and discuss the methods of product design. Finally, the current problems and difficulties in this field are discussed in this paper, and this paper proposes the development direction of the product design for additive manufacturing in the future.
