This book provides an overview of the wide application field of Additive Manufacturing, focusing on the industrial use of various technologies. After describing a general understanding and assessing the use of Additive Manufacturing processes in product development, different technologies are analyzed in terms of sustainability, customization, qualification, and design aspects. The focus is always on considering the entire process chain, from the pre-process to the in-process and post-process, all the way to application. The final examination of the safety features of Additive Manufacturing leads to an assessment of future developments in the field of Additive Manufacturing.
