Hybrid Manufacturing Processes Used in the Production of Complex Parts: A Comprehensive Review

Additive manufacturing is defined as a process based on the superposition of layers materials in order to obtain 3D parts; however, does not allow achieve adequate and necessary surface finishing. In addition, with development new superior properties, some them acquire high hardness strength, consequently decreasing their ability be machined. To overcome this shortcoming, technology assembling additive subtractive processes, was developed implemented. process, methods are integrated into single machine often called hybrid manufacturing. The used produce part efficiency flexibility, whilst machining then triggered give good finishing dimensional accuracy. With this, without need transport from one another, time reduced, well production costs, since waste material minimized, additive–subtractive integration. This work aimed carry out an extensive literature review regarding methods, such binder blasting, directed energy deposition, extrusion, jetting, powder bed fusion, sheet laminating vat polymerization, studying additive-subtractive integration, analyze recent developments area, techniques used, results obtained. perform review, ScienceDirect, Web Knowledge Google Scholar were main source information because they powerful search engines science information. Specialized books have been also several websites. keywords searching were: “CNC machining”, “hybrid manufacturing”, “additive “high-speed machining” “post-processing”. conjunction these crucial filter huge currently available about mainly focused publications current century. intends provide structured research carried each two considered processes (additive machining), how can taken consideration studies machining, helping researchers increase knowledge field faster way. An outlook integration performed. Additionally, SWOT analysis provided for manufacturing, observing aspects inherent technologies.
