Additive manufacturing has come further than you may think
About additive manufacturing
Additive manufacturing (AM), sometimes more known as industrial 3D-printing, is a technology that can produce physical parts directly from digital 3D-models. It is an advanced manufacturing method that has increased in popularity and use cases in recent years, and is now used for everything from prototyping to critical components.
The benefits are;
- Quick – The technology does not need part specific tooling.
- Green – You use the material you actually need.
- Resource efficient – Few and competent operators are needed.
- Local – The technology are space efficient, and opens up for local opportunities.
- Complexity – The technology can produce parts with a complexity that is impossible any other way.
At Mechatronics Innovation Lab, we use AM for:
- Metal, both 3D-print and repair of existing parts
- Polymers & composites
- Concrete
