Description
This book is a clear and concise guide to Additive Manufacturing (AM), now a well-established valuable tool for making models and prototypes, and also a manufacturing method for molds and final parts finding applications in industries such as medicine, car manufacturing, and aerospace engineering.
The book was designed as a supporting material for special courses on advanced manufacturing technology, and for supplementing the content of traditional manufacturing lessons.
This second edition has been updated to account for the recent explosion of availability of small, inexpensive 3D printers for domestic use, as well as new industrial printers for series production that have come onto the market.
Contents:
Basics of 3D Printing Technology
Additive Manufacturing Processes/3D Printing
The Additive Manufacturing Process Chain and Machines for Additive Manufacturing
Applications of Additive Manufacturing
Perspectives and Strategies of Additive Manufacturing
Materials and Design
Glossary of Terms, Abbreviations, and Definitions

Dr.-Ing. Andreas Gebhardt studierte an der technischen Hochschule Aachen Maschinenbau mit dem Schwerpunkt Motoren- und Turbinenbau. Nach Stationen als Geschäftsführer in der mittelständischen Wirtschaft wurde er zum Sommersemester 2000 als Professor für Hochleistungsverfahren der Fertigungstechnik und Rapid Prototyping an die Fachhochschule Aachen berufen. Dort leitet er eine Forschergruppe und Labore zum Lasersintern von Metallen (SLM Verfahren), Polymerdrucken, 3D-Drucken (Pulver-Binder Verfahren), Extrusionsverfahren (FDM) und zum Einsatz unterschiedlicher Fabber. Seit dem Wintersemester 2000 ist Andreas Gebhardt Gastprofessor am City College der City University New York.
2004 gründete er das RTeJournal (www.rtejournal.de), eine "open-access" online-Zeitschrift für Rapid Technology und ist dessen Herausgeber.
