Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation

Alami, Abdul Hai

This book offers a unique vantage point on converting ideas into products using additive manufacturing. Intended for novice and beginner designers, the process of industrial design is explained in order to translate verbal requirements into design constraints with the aid of the House of Quality approach. The product is then sketched and ported into a CAD software for modelling. The reader is then guided to the selection of the most appropriate additive manufacturing process, including PLA, resin, or metal 3D printing, along with material combination to meet their requirements. The book puts recyclability at the forefront of material discussion, from energy and circular economy perspectives, as they are central to achieving economic and energy efficiency. This is done by presenting the reader with do-it-yourself projects, which include processes like sand casting and lost PLA/Wax, that can be followed in a step-by-step manner using conventionally available tools.
