How to design for metal technologies

Unlock the full potential of metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) with our comprehensive Design for AM Metal guide. Tailored for industrial users, this essential resource emphasizes the critical role of design in maximizing the efficiency and capabilities of metal AM. Learn how to optimize your designs for different processes, resulting in stronger, lighter, and more reliable components. Our guide addresses key design considerations specific to metal AM, including support structures, accuracy and surface roughness. This guide can both be applied when designing new parts from scratch or when you consider to use AM for a part that has previously been manufactured with a different technology. Besides giving guidelines on how to properly design for a certain technology, the guide can also be used to select the right metal process for your application.
