Development and Design of a Machine for Hybrid Manufacturing

What is it about?

Abstract: This paper presents the methodology for development and design of a machine for rapid prototyping with integrated hybrid manufacturing technology. Hybrid manufacturing technology is technology which can manufacture parts by adding and removing materials during the same manufacturing process. Methodology includes all phases of product development and design. From initial concept development, selecting optimal solution, development of 3D CAD models, up to technical documentation and manufacturing of a machine. At the end of a paper comparison between developed machine and other similar machines are carried out. Advantages and disadvantages of developed machine are highlighted. Also, most important properties of developed machine for manufacturing of prototypes and final parts are presented.
