The arrival of Additive Manufacturing (AM) as a valid alternative to the original five manufacturing processes is really going to shake up the factory. Within 3 to 5 years, engineering and ...

This article will describe three types, or ways, of manufacturing a product; additive, subtractive, and forming. What is Additive Manufacturing? Think of an artist painting a bear on a canvas. What is ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We consider a Markov additive process (MAP) with phase-type jumps, starting at 0. Given a positive level u, we determine the joint ...

This composite driveshaft demonstrator manufactured by LCC uses 3D-printed load introduction elements at the end-fitting as well as longitudinal rib stiffeners that spiral toward the opposite end.

Additive manufacturing (AM) has witnessed tremendous growth as its focus has shifted from prototypes to end-use functional parts. However, the industry has a set of critical production challenges, ...

CNC or 3D printing? Why not both? Hybrid approaches combine subtractive and additive manufacturing processes to deliver precise outputs at greater speeds. In this piece, we’ll break down the basics of ...
