1. _______________
"The best way to
predict the future
is to invent it."
_______________
The key feature of
the DFAM
methodology
consists in the
concurrent
product and
process design
and optimization,
which allows to
obtain novel
concepts, while
minimizing the
costs of
production.
DFAM
Design for Additive Manufacturing
The DFAM methodology reorganizes the
design process of structural products and is
designed to meet the new design opportunities
of additive technologies, using the most
appropriate CAx tools.
What benefit?
Products
• Maximum robustness
• Maximum structural performance/weight ratio
• Maximum reproducibility
• Maximum geometric accuracy
Processes
• Minimum use of energy and material
• Minimum lead time
• Minimum number of trials
