WHAT IS ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING
Additive manufacturing (AM) is the industrial production name for 3D printing, a
computer controlled process that creates three dimensional objects by depositing
materials, usually in layers.
Using computer aided design (CAD) or 3D object scanners, additive manufacturing
allows for the creation of objects with precise geometric shapes. These are built layer
by layer which is in contrast to traditional manufacturing that often requires
machining or other techniques to remove surplus material.
ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING STANDARDS
• Three key standards should be considered when developing a strategy for
adopting and applying AM:
• Product or part design
• Production and the materials used in the production of those parts
• Data that makes up the AM process, or the “digital thread”
• Modern industrial applications rely on a strong base of accuracy and
precision that is repeatable. A strategy for handling these three key areas
when using AM is important if one is to achieve the level of accuracy,
precision, and repeatability that has come to be expected by the
marketplace.

HIGH ACCURACY AND RESOLUTION THE PROCESS OF PRINTING IS
LARGE CHOICE OF STARTING SLOW

MATERIALS USED IN THE PROCESSING
• When designing a part or prototype that will interfere with other components, it is
important to define the necessary material and machine used during the print,
however there is verity of materiuals used during the processing:
• 1- Polymer
• 2- metales
• 3- Sand
• 4- Thermoset
• 5- thermoplastic
So there is defrent materials for deferent process models of 3D print:
FDM : Nylon, ABS, PLA
SLA : deferent type of resin ( standard, clair, durable....)
SLS: Nylon, PA , TPU
DMLS : titanum , Alluminum
Binder jetting : sand, stanless Steel,
