HYBRID ADDITIVE AND SUBTRACTIVE MANUFACTURING PROCESSES AND SYSTEMS: A REVIEW

Journal Title: Journal of Machine Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 4

Abstract

This review paper highlights the hybrid manufacturing processes which integrate the additive and subtractive processes performing on one hybrid platform consisting of the LMD (laser metal deposition) unit and CNC machine tools. In particular, some important rules and advantages as well as technological potentials of the integration of different AM technique and finishing CNC machining operations are discussed and overviewed. Some representative examples such as formation of difficult features around the part periphery, deposition of functional layers and coatings and repair of high-value parts in aerospace industry are provided. Some conclusions and future trends in the implementation of hybrid processes are outlined.<br/><br/>
