摘要(Abstract):
Additive Manufacturing(AM) is defined by ASTM as the "The process of joining materials to make objects from 3D model data, usually layer upon layer, as opposed to subtractive manufacturing methodologies”.Traditional manufacturing has fuelled the industrial revolution that has enabled our world today, yet it contains inherent limitations that point to the need for new approaches. Casting, forming, molding, and machining are complex processes that involve tooling, machinery, computers, and robots.The competitive advantages of AM are geometrical freedom, shortened design to product time, reduction in process steps, mass customization and material flexibility. 3D AM simplifies the laborious process of producing complex parts while reducing cost. It is predisposed to industry sectors that require high mix, low volume parts or customised parts. This presentation will highlighttheopportunities and applications of additive manufacturing in a number of growing industry sectors including Aerospace, Transportation, Oil & Gas, Precision Engineering, MedTech, Electronics, Energy and Consumer.In addition, the additive manufacturing research activities inA*STAR/SIMTechwill also be introduced.
