Innovative Product Development By Additive Manufacturing 2022 [Paperback] [Mar 08, 2023] Lachmayer, Roland; Bode, Behrend and Kaierle, Stefan

The book consists of a collection of papers from a corresponding conference regarding additive manufacturing. The yearly conference used to be held in German under the title "Konstruktion für die Additive Fertigung" and is held in English since last year. 

The topics are

• Specifications, potentials, and solutions
• Contributions to specifications on components and processes and methods for assessing the suitability of components and the application of additive manufacturing and finding solutions for concepts and design
• Design and optimization
• Contributions to the development and design of components, their design to ensure functional requirements and manufacturability, and methods and tools for optimization components
• Simulation, validation, and quality assurance
• Contributions to approaches for the computer-aided and physical validation of components, the testing of components and material, and measures to ensure quality aspects
• Process chain and business models
• Contributions to their integration of additive manufacturing processes into existing processes and measures to increase value creation and the creation of new business models.

Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. Roland Lachmayer is a founding director and head of the Institute for Product Development (IPeG) at the Leibniz Universität Hannover. He is a senator of the Leibniz Universität Hannover, spokesman of the graduate school “Tailored Light,” member of the scientific directorate of Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V., managing director of Scientific Society for Product Development (WiGeP), and since 2018 spokesman of the ERDF-funded research network GROTESK. Since 2019, Professor Lachmayer has headed the Additive Manufacturing task group of the PHOENIX-D cluster of excellence. His publications to date include work on development methodology and numerous publications on additive manufacturing.

Behrend Bode has been a research associate at the Institute for Product Development (IPeG) at the Leibniz Universität Hannover since 2019 and is working on the design of thermally and mechanically loaded components for additive manufacturing. Previously, he successfully graduated from the Technical University of Braunschweig with a Master of Science degree in mechanical engineering with a focus on structural dynamics and worked in the field as a visiting researcher at the NASA Langley Research Center and in the automotive industry as a systems engineer.
