Additive manufacturing (AM - most commonly known as 3D printing) is a fabrication method and aims to increase production efficiency while lowering costs of constructing quality components for industry application when compared to traditional machining. In addition to this, AM possesses capabilities that far exceed machining as complex geometries are achievable through an array of technologies in a wide variety of materials. The AM process begins with a computer aided design (CAD) which creates a design path for a 3D printer to follow. By following this path, components are built from bottom to top in a layer by layer fashion. …
