Developing a tool to systematically identify opportunities and guide re-design for additive manufacturing - Aken, J.H. van (Jop)

Summary

This project addresses the knowledge gap, that hinders the industrial adoption of additive manufacturing, by developing Additive Compass, a tool that helps engineers through the trade-offs of additive manufacturing. By using an AI-driven workflow, the tool guides users to identify the correct strategic driver and supports the technical redesign process to ensure  viability of the redesign.
