Abstract

Purpose Along the last years the complexity of products has been growing progressively while the product development life-cycle tended to be reduced In addition to that additive manufacturing technologies increased their role in the product development process resulting in reduction of errors and products release time In spite of these benefits the main application of these technologies is still focused on initial phases of projects and results in high costs of parts and low volumes On the other hand although conventional produtivity processes results in low costs and high volumes the investiment related to these processes are high and the implementation time are long For that reason the main goal of this work is to investigate the possibility of application of additive manufacturing technologies for small and medium scale production
