Are you wondering whether 3D printing would be a viable option for your company? This new book on 3D printing offers answers to the following questions:

• How can 3D printing be integrated into the company?
• What do you need to make 3D printing economically viable?
• What are the advantages of 3D printing?
• What are the challenges of additive manufacturing with plastics?

3D printing, or more accurately, additive manufacturing technology, has now significantly advanced beyond prototype production and is already well into series production. However, integrating 3D printing economically into your company requires more than just a 3D printing system. The preparation steps, work instructions, safety precautions, infrastructure, as well as the post-processing and finishing of the manufactured components are at least as important.

For this reason, the newly published specialist book Plastics Knowledge for Additive Manufacturing – Properties, Processing and Applications of Thermoplastics published by Hanser Verlag offers useful information and practical application tips on how 3D printing can be integrated into the company and what requirements must be met.

On May 12, 2023, the book "Plastics Knowledge for Additive Manufacturing – Properties, Processing, and Applications of Thermoplastics" was published by Hanser Verlag. Authors Andreas Fischer, Dirk Achten, and Martin Launhardt.

The book is available both in hardcover and digitally.
