Abstract

Additive manufacturing (AM) is one of the crucial tools of the new paradigm of Industry 4.0. AM implies a revolutionary change in the production industry, and a deep knowledge about the achievable product precision is needed. This chapter is focused on a review of the most relevant factors related to the dimensional accuracy and surface roughness in these free-form manufacturing technologies, and the mathematical models ...
