    This document provides an introduction to additive manufacturing. It discusses how additive manufacturing builds objects layer by layer rather than subtractively removing material from a block as with traditional machining. Additive manufacturing allows for complex geometries to be 3D printed without the need for molds and can produce multiple parts simultaneously. The document then overview's several common 3D printing technologies including Fused Deposition Modeling which uses thermoplastics deposited through a nozzle, Stereolithography which uses a laser to cure liquid resin, and Selective Laser Sintering which fuses powdered materials with a laser.

    An Introduction to Additive Manufacturing

    1
    Substractive vs Additive

    • Generate 3D model • Generate a 3D model


    • Generate CNC program • Software slices the 3D model
    • Machine away unwanted into thin slices
    material • Machine builds it layer by
    • If possible, recycle waste layer

    Additive manufacturing

    3D Printing does not require any mold as a precursor to manufacture

    Additive manufacturing

    Multiple parts can be produced in one cycle 5


    Additive manufacturing

    • 3D Printing has been used


    successfully to make parts of
    various sizes
    • Geometric complexity is not a
    limitation in 3D Printing

    Overview of 3D printing technologies

    Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)

    • Material is selectively dispensed through a nozzle and solidifies.


    • Filament is made of thermoplastic materials
    – Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)
    – Polylactide (PLA) – biodegradable!
    – Many new materials
