3D Additive Manufacturing with LMD – Robot-based vs. Cartesian Machine
![](/en/collaborativerd/3d-am-with-ldm/jcr:content/contentPar/sectioncomponent/sectionParsys/textwithasset/imageComponent/image.img.jpg/1489587519042/Project-3-3.jpg)
What are the limits for 3D-AM with LMD when using a robot-based or cartesian machine system?
Challenge and Motivation
- Using robot-based systems for additive manufacturing with LMD may offer economic advantages and more flexibility
- Effects on final part accuracy and difference in achievable geometries unknown
Objective
- Compare cartesian and robot-based systems in regard to achievable part geometries
