Abstract

Additive manufacturing being the most desirable manufacturing process is important to keep a track on how the process affects the physical properties of the material. Additive manufacturing is still in its early stages of research for ceramics and metals. Both ceramics and metals have contrasting properties, for example, while metals are generally highly ductile and thermally conductive, ceramics is mostly brittle and very low in thermal conduction. Additive manufacturing has branched out to different sub-manufacturing processes; the problem however lies that the cost efficiency of setting up the system and churning out the products is still low when it comes to industrial production. A variation of the technology so that it can easily adapt to polymers, metals, and ceramics simultaneously while producing optimal property characteristics for all is required. The paper deals with a comparative study on the effect of additive manufacturing on properties such as flexural strength, tensile strength, compressive strength, hardness, bending strength, and fracture toughness for both metals and ceramics having their characteristics poles apart.
