Large Format Additive Manufacturing

Large Format Additive Manufacturing, 1st Edition, provides a dedicated reference on industrial manufacturing processes operating across expanded dimensional boundaries. Written by Daniel Moreno Nieto, the work details technical methods for fabricating workpieces and intermediate products ranging from the centimeter to the meter scale. The text directly targets materials scientists, process engineers, mechanical engineers, and industrial practitioners looking to implement scaled build techniques.

The text organizes its primary technical coverage into three major sections, with each section focused on a specific material family. Initial chapters evaluate polymeric materials alongside cement and clay compositions. Subsequent sections address metallic materials and ceramics, establishing direct operational connections between raw material behavior and processing machinery.

A key focus of the volume is the integration of economic drivers with mass-customized production and precision manufacturing strategies. This reference provides professionals in research centers, industrial firms, and the metal processing sector with a clear framework for analyzing large-scale additive systems.
