What is additive manufacturing? 3D PRINTING Additive manufacturing, also knows as 3D printing, is a process that creates a physical object from a digital design file. Additive manufacturing enables engineers to design parts, systems and shapes once thought impossible to make. Additive manufacturing allows for complex design geometries, making products that are lighter, stronger and more efficient, revolutionizing products in many industries. Why additive … Expands what is possible … opens up new engineering capabilities and business opportunities to optimize part & system designs in a way we cannot with traditional manufacturing processes Improves quality … eliminates design trade offs; reduced defect opportunities, digital v. analog control, reduced anomaly size and frequency v. traditional castings Simplifies systems … more robust designs, reduced part counts, reduced braze/weld/rivet/bolted joints and assemblies; optimized systems

Successful identification starts with these key considerations
Two questions that must be answered
1) Should I build it additively?
2) Can I build it additively?
Process success factors
• Consider system, component and
feature-level
• Iterative process that is continuously
refined
• Data driven approach
