Additive Manufacturing Materials and Technology 1st Edition

Grab the definitive technical guide for the evolving world of 3D production: Additive Manufacturing Materials and Technology, 1st Edition by Sanjay Mavinkere Rangappa, Vinod Ayyappan, and Suchart Siengchin. This authoritative volume cuts through complexity to deliver clear, practical insight into the materials science and process technologies powering modern additive manufacturing.

Begin with a fast, accessible overview of core concepts—materials selection, microstructure, mechanical behavior, and testing—then dive into platform-by-platform coverage: FDM/FFF, SLA, SLS/SLM, DED, binder jetting, and emerging hybrid processes. Thorough chapters on metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites explain how feedstock, thermal histories, and post-processing govern part performance. Detailed sections on Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM), process parameters, quality control, and materials characterization translate theory into practical decisions for engineers and researchers.

Engineered for students, R&D professionals, and industrial practitioners in India and worldwide, this edition emphasizes real-world applications across aerospace, medical devices, automotive, tooling, and consumer goods. Clear diagrams, comparative tables, and case studies make complex topics usable on the factory floor and in the lab. The authors also address sustainability, supply-chain implications, and future trends—helping organizations evaluate ROI and implement AM strategies responsibly.

Whether you’re a postgraduate student, materials scientist, or manufacturing manager seeking a reliable reference, this book equips you to select materials, optimize processes, and deliver high-performance printed parts. Elevate your understanding of additive manufacturing materials and technology—order your copy of Additive Manufacturing Materials and Technology, 1st Edition and stay ahead in the rapidly changing world of 3D printing.
