Each of these cutting-edge products is manufactured using advanced manufacturing technologies to meet with the customerâ��s demand for customized products and services. Additive manufacturing (AM) (also known as 3D printing) is one of these advanced manufacturing techniques that has been revolutionizing the manufacturing industry rapidly in the last few decades. The development of this manufacturing process has removed manufacturing constraints significantly and widened freedom of design. The AM technique manufactures complex geometries with exceptional dimensional accuracy, including assemblies. This chapter presents an extensive review on the available additive manufacturing technologies, challenges involved and their various applications. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG. date: 2021 publisher: Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85105664771&doi=10.1007%2f978-3-030-67750-3_9&partnerID=40&md5=f2fe168c839e69f0207759ecd6ad1f74 id_number: 10.1007/978-3-030-67750-3₉ full_text_status: none publication: Advanced Structured Materials volume: 148 pagerange: 93-111 refereed: TRUE issn: 18698433 citation: Azam, F.I. and Rani, A.M.A. and Razak, M.A.â��H.A. and Ali, S. and Aliyu, A.â��A.
