History and Evolution of Additive Manufacturing

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Additive Manufacturing for Chemical Sciences and Engineering

Abstract

Since its first use to build sculptures, additive manufacturing has come a long way to become a prominent and prolific modern technology with wide acceptance due to significant benefits and advantages arising from its adoption and implementation in different industrial and consumer sectors. AM is rapidly paving a path towards an intensified technological society by facilitating unprecedented accomplishments ranging from digital storage of production data and on-demand manufacturing to repair and maintenance of malfunctioning machines, tools, and even human’s anatomy. This chapter presents a state-of-the-art review on the history and evolution of additive manufacturing technologies along with the emerging paradigm for the incorporation of AM in major industrial and research sectors. Overall, the chapter provides all the necessary insights essentially required by young researchers to understand where AM came from and where it is going.
