2. The additive manufacturing digital chain : from model to product
The meteoric rise of AM was mainly facilitated by increasing computer processing capabilities. Indeed, it is thanks to their high calculating power that computer aided design (CAD) developed, allowing the 3D representation of digital objects and stirring a desire to make them .
As with traditional processes, AM also relies on a succession of operations to move from the digital object to the real object. This is referred to as the digital chain . It can be broken down into a sequence of...
