Progress in Additive Manufacturing

Laser beam melting (LBM) is an additive manufacturing technology (AM), which enables the production of individual, complex metal parts. The development of AM-specific materials is a necessary step to exploit the full technological potential and …

Fused deposition modeling (FDM) has been used to manufacture complicated structures and robots in the past few years. However, most FDM machines do not fabricate fully functional robots that are ready for use. One of the requirements of fully …

In the present work, inkjet 3D printing technology was employed to form clay powder into green ceramic components. Sintering was then applied to consolidate the 3D-printed ceramics to produce the filtration media for water treatment. Specimen …

The purpose of this work is to achieve the improvement of mechanical properties of polyamide 12 through dispersion of graphene-like nanofillers, for its use in Powder Bed Fusion. Nanocomposites have been prepared by conventional injection moulding …

Additive manufacturing of mixed potential electrochemical sensors opens the possibility to perform rapid prototyping of electrode and electrolyte materials. We report for the first time the use of this technique for the fabrication of solid-state …
