Selection of Additive Manufacturing (AM) Equipment

Abstract

Recent advancements in technology have enabled Additive Manufacturing (AM), also known as Three-Dimensional (3-D) printing, to become a powerful, viable tool in the research, development, and overall engineering of many products in the world today. This report will give an overview of the selection of AM equipment for the United States (U.S.) Army Aviation and Missile Research, Development and Engineering Center (AMRDEC) to use as a tool in the design, test, and fabrication of the systems within the AMRDEC portfolio.
