The Engineer - Sponsored post: Fine-Tuning the Factory - A Simulation App Helps Optimise an Additive Manufacturing Facility

Additive manufacturing (AM) processes, such as metal powder bed fusion, can provide rapid and customisable production of high-quality components. Britain's Manufacturing Technology Centre, along with partners in the aerospace sector, has built an on-site powder bed fusion facility — and also developed a simulation model and app to help factory staff make informed decisions about its operation.
