I'm thrilled to share that my publication is now live: "Assessing additive manufacturing suitability of metal parts: a geometry-focused methodology" https://lnkd.in/eesAQqpf The paper presents a quantitative method to evaluate the suitability of metal parts for additive manufacturing, focusing on geometry and process-specific criteria for PBF-LB/M and DED-Arc/M. It combines manufacturability, cost, and complexity into a single score. The methodology is transparent, practical, and accessible even without deep AM expertise. I’d like to thank my coauthor Claudius Ellsel for his great support throughout the process, as well as my professor Dietmar Göhlich for his guidance and encouragement. #AdditiveManufacturing #MetalAM #DFAM #EngineeringDesign #ManufacturingResearch #FirstPublication
