Blurb

This edited book serves to unify the current state of knowledge for 3D printing /

Additive Manufacturing and its impact on manufacturing operations. Bringing

together leading experts from across the operations and supply chain disciplines

the contributions offer a concise, accessible, and focused text for researchers and

practitioners alike. Showing how 3DP can be implemented in a multitude of business

models, the book explores how to manage 3DP both in the production environment

and wider supply chain.
