Analysis of Sinter-Based Additive Manufacturing for Functional Products

Sinter-based additive manufacturing enables the production of complex metallic components — but the path from digital design to reliable functional parts remains fraught with challenges. This book bridges the gap between research and industrial application by providing a systematic framework for the entire material extrusion (MEX/M) process chain. The book offers engineers, researchers, and graduate students a structured methodology to understand, control, and optimize the MEX/M process — from material selection and printing parameters to post-processing and final part qualification. By combining experimental investigation with data-driven approaches, it provides actionable insights for both academic research and industrial implementation in lightweight engineering and beyond.
