This Report shows how tools like artificial intelligence, digital twins, and on-demand manufacturing are no longer emerging concepts, but are already delivering measurable impact across the product lifecycle.
Additive manufacturing (AM or 3D printing) has made design-driven production a reality. Any shape that can be constructed in a 3D CAD program can be produced with AM, providing product designers maximum geometric design freedom to realize new design concepts.
Once you’ve decided to implement 3D printing within your workflow, you’ll need to know how to use the technology as productively as possible. The following tips will enable you to make the most of your 3D printer as quickly as possible.
A material’s strength refers to the maximum stress it can be put under before its failure. Its stiffness refers to how much it will deform when pulled or bent. Materials with high stiffness often also have high strength.

“Toughness” is a combination of an object’s strength (how easily it breaks) and ductility (how easily it deforms). In this way, toughness and impact resistance are one and the same – especially in material science, as toughness is a measure for how easily your part breaks upon impact.
