A New Theory of Additive Manufacturing


Free Download A New Theory of Additive Manufacturing: Solvable and Unsolvable Manufacturing Problems
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031754263 | 82 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 13 MB
This is the first book on Additive Manufacturing that provides an original theory for the entire subject. It is the culmination of a search for the root cause of manufacturing problems that occur in practice. The author finds a reason why there are only two types of layer arrangement for manufacturing products and divides fabrication problems in additive manufacturing into two types: solvable and unsolvable. This allows readers to anticipate/avoid difficulty in manufacturing, saving materials, time, and resources.

Additive Manufacturing of Structural Electronics (De Gruyter STEM)


Free Download Additive Manufacturing of Structural Electronics (De Gruyter STEM) by Marcin Słoma
English | May 6, 2024 | ISBN: 3110793598 | MOBI | 4.23 Mb
Additive manufacturing, also called rapid prototyping or 3D printing is a disruptive manufacturing technique with a significant impact in electronics. With 3D printing, bulk objects with circuitry are embedded in the volume of an element or conformally coated on the surface of existing parts, allowing design and manufacturing of smaller and lighter products with fast customisation. The book covers both materials selection and techniques. The scope also covers the research areas of additive manufacturing of passive and active components, sensors, energy storage, bioelectronics and more.
