Description

Over the past three decades, China has achieved remarkable progress in additive manufacturing (AM), both in academic research and industrial applications. This presentation will first provide an overview of the current state of AM in China, covering publication outputs, patent portfolios, major publicly listed companies etc. The main focus will then be placed on the technological advancements in laser powder bed fusion, laser directed energy deposition, and wire‑arc directed energy deposition, with brief mentions of other processes. Finally, several recently emerging metal AM technologies will also be introduced before the conclusion and perspective parts.
