Although additive manufacturing is a relatively young discipline, the effects that can be achieved with the various additive technologies in terms of efficient product and manufacturing process optimization are of outstanding importance. These processes offer innovative and versatile opportunities for accelerated product design and advanced design and manufacturing process optimization. In addition, the use of nature-based technologies also makes it possible to manufacture components with extreme complexity and internal structures that were very difficult or impossible to produce using conventional methods. Lightweight design and energy savings, also in the product life cycle, can thus be realized with the same stability and load-bearing capacity. This book describes how the potential of additive manufacturing can be used specifically in product development to design highly efficient products. For this purpose, the contents are linked holistically in the sense of development processes of product creation.

The book consists of a collection of papers from a corresponding conference regarding additive manufacturing. The yearly conference used to be held in German under the title "Konstruktion für die Additive Fertigung" and is held in English since last year. The topics are Specifications, potentials, and solutions Contributions to specifications on components and processes and methods for assessing the suitability of components and the application of additive manufacturing and finding solutions for concepts and design Design and optimization Contributions to the development and design of components, their design to ensure functional requirements and manufacturability, and methods and tools for optimization components Simulation, validation, and quality assurance Contributions to approaches for the computer-aided and physical validation of components, the testing of components and material, and measures to ensure quality aspects Process chain and business modelsContributions to their integration of additive manufacturing processes into existing processes and measures to increase value creation and the creation of new business models.
