Abstract

Capabilities of additive manufacturing (AM) for rapid tooling are well known in recent times. Rapid sand moulds are advantageous over traditional sand moulds in terms of cost, manufacturing time, flexibility, etc. This paper identifies metrics related to mould manufacturing and categorises them into four categories (cost, time, quality and environmental sustainability). A methodology based on the deterministic Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) multi-criteria decision-making algorithm is used to map at high resolution the influence of such categories on to the decision-making space when comparing AM with conventional sand mould making. Results show that AM is almost always clearly advantageous overall (excluding some very limited corner cases) for the examined case.
