January Special Focus Issue: Design for Additive

The use of additive manufacturing (AM) technology has slowly expanded over the past several years, with more companies embracing 3D printing for prototyping and, increasingly, end product manufacturing.

But there is still a lot of work to be done when it comes to taking full advantage of the benefits of AM. That’s where design for additive manufacturing (DfAM) becomes critically important. 

In this Special Focus Issue of Digital Engineering, our writers take a look at the latest advancements in DfAM initiatives, new software, and the expanded use of 3D printing in industry. We hope you enjoy the issue.

The issue includes:

• Metal Additive Makes Waves Across Industries

• Getting Schooled in DfAM

• AM Transforms On-Demand Medical Device Production

• Software Tools Advancing the AM Market

• Making Inroads in Automotive

• ... and more!
