3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing for Furniture Manufacturing

The additive manufacturing course is structured in two parts. The first introduces the user to the technology, giving an overview of 3D printing and how it works, as well as showing the production process of a 3D printed product. In the second part, it is detailed how to use this technology in the wood and furniture sector, explaining some of its most relevant uses in this field. Reference is also made to the commercial and design benefits that the furniture sector can derive from additive manufacturing.
