From Prototype to Production: A Review of Industrial Applications for 3D Printing in Aerospace, Automotive, Biomedical, and ElectronicsBy Tunji John ERINLE, Daniel Chukunebikpe UGURU-OKORIE, Abiodun Michael ADEBIMPE, Adeolu Adesoji ADEDIRAN, Tolulope Tunji OLADIMEJI, Lukeman Sunday LAWAL, Ayodeji Babatunde FALANA
Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) or Additive Manufacturing has made remarkable progress from rapid prototyping to large-scale production. Several industries like aerospace, automotive, biomedical, and electronics utilise AM technology for product personalisation, minimising waste material, reducing the cycle time of product design, and designing complex shapes that are difficult to manufacture using traditional techniques like subtractive manufacturing. This paper evaluates the evolution of 3D printing technology from prototyping to industrial production. In addition, …
