MfAM of parts is a common transition when a company is working to leverage all the benefits of AM.
Practice this chapterMfAM of parts is a common transition when a company is working to leverage all the benefits of AM. Mainly this includes MfAM of features to ensure that an AM part is able to be fabricated successfully, in which the main drivers are cost and time savings.
In summary, it is important to note AM design terminology and how they apply to product benefits Direct Part Conversion - Reproducing a conventionally manufactured product using AM
AM part — able to be fabricated successfully, in which the main drivers are cost and time savings. common transition when a company — working to leverage all the benefits of AM.
Be able to identify the AM Design Workflow process steps; define retained bodies - in other words, volumes on the part that should not be optimized; describe the nuances of directed energy deposition AM processes.
Worked example

- 1Use the wording this chapter gives for AM part.
- 2The book says: able to be fabricated successfully, in which the main drivers are cost and time savings.
- 3Do not use the meaning of common transition when a company. That term means working to leverage all the benefits of AM.
