Additive Manufacturing in Toolmaking
Duration: September 2020 to April 2021
The aim of this consortium benchmarking was to exploit the economic and technological potential of additive manufacturing in tool and mould making. For this purpose, the relevant additive manufacturing processes and their possible applications were investigated and quantitatively evaluated. The potentials of additive manufacturing were derived and new business models, which result from the use of additive processes, have been conceptualized.
Main topics
- Technological and economic potentials of additive manufacturing processes
- Evaluation of the benefits and harms of additive manufacturing
- New business models through additive manufacturing
