This volume represents a part of the final documentation of the project, "Layer Manufacturing as a Tool for Reduction of Product Lead Time", called NOR-LMT, founded by Nordic Fund for Technology and Industrial Development, the national research councils in the four countries, and industry. The NOR-LMT project was designed in order to adapt Layer Manufacturing Technology (LMT) to industrial use, and to transfer the technology to the Nordic industry. This intends to develop design procedures, to adapt the different processes to cost efficient use, and to promote industry to take the new and promising technology into practical use.
