Additive Manufacturing

Additive Manufacturing, as a book category, covers the design, technologies, materials, processes, applications and business of layer‑by‑layer fabrication—commonly known as 3D printing—across industries from aerospace and medical to automotive, tooling and consumer products. Titles range from introductory primers and hands‑on maker guides to advanced engineering textbooks and research monographs, addressing key topics such as process types (FDM, SLA, SLS, DED, binder jetting, etc.), material science (polymers, metals, ceramics, composites), design‑for‑AM principles, simulation and process optimization, quality assurance and standards, post‑processing, and hybrid manufacturing. Books in this category also treat associated software workflows (CAD, slicing, scanning), supply‑chain and economic considerations, regulatory and certification issues, and case studies demonstrating real‑world applications and sustainability implications, making the category useful to students, researchers, engineers, product designers, manufacturing managers and hobbyists alike.
