About this title

Synopsis

Additive Manufacturing (AM), or “3D printing”, also called the ‘Third Industrial Revolution’, allows companies and individuals to “print-out” solid objects layer-by-layer based on access to 3-dimensional computer data. Several authors have pointed out that AM has the potential to reduce the number of stages in the traditional supply chain and to fundamentally revolutionize manufacturing operations and supply chains. Evidence suggests that AM technology as a driver of supply chain transformation it can achieve precision, speed, affordability, and materials range. Therefore, it has the potential to redesign products with fewer components and to manufacture products near the customers. Production applications of AM technologies can be found mainly in aerospace, automotive, medical, and consumer goods. Although a number of companies are already using AM technologies, they face particular difficulties in the implementation process. In particular, studies on AM implementation are disappointingly absent, especially in relation to supply chain. Most studies on supply chain focus mainly on the potential disruptions of AM in distribution/logistics and therefore on location of manufacturing. Hence, an investigation on the key AM implementation factors within the various stages of a supply chain from the selection of raw material-equipment suppliers towards the customers’ needs to be examined.
