Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Additive manufacturing (AM) has achieved notable advancements in both research and industrial sectors, transitioning beyond its initial role in prototyping. Given the rapid expansion of AM technologies, there is a clear need for ongoing updates to the latest scientific developments. This Special Issue invites contributions on recent progress in AM across a range of materials and methodologies with strong translational potential for commercial use, including selective laser sintering, material extrusion, binder jetting, UV curing, hybrid printing methods, and innovative material development to enhance the scope of AM.
