The advantages of combining 3D printing with turning process. Case study

The paper presents a case study which the additive manufacturing technology is combined with finishing process by cutting operations (turning) for part. part was manufactured through manufacturing, using 3D printer and performed lathe, resulting in technological properties corresponding dimensional accuracy. research also contains analysis of roughness other material from final will be made. used as support blades fan during assembly process, emphasizes that obtained (3D printing) can replace casting or fabrication total cutting. In conclusion, obtaining combining two processes, lead time production cost has been significantly reduced, while quality product increased, very good roughness.
