Framework to Assess Applicability of 3D Printing in Manufacturing
ثبت نشده
چکیده
3D printing has been hailed as a game changer in the manufacturing sector, with major imprints across multiple domains. Players from several industries are investing heavily in 3D printing, with the possibility of extending its applicability to daily use products coming to the fore. With speculation and limited information blurring the line between reality and fiction, it is critical to analyze the key challenges to adopt 3D printing technology. A comprehensive framework can help current or potential users of this technology understand 3D printing and take an informed decision on its applicability as an alternate manufacturing process, especially for engineered products and components for Industrial use.
