Abstract

Today, there are more than 30 varieties of additive manufacturing technologies, and their number is constantly growing. Each type of these technologies has its own unique features and specifics, but they are all related to certain types of additive manufacturing or combinations of these types. In this article, a comparative analysis of the main technologies of additive manufacturing is carried out, where their unique features, applications, advantages and disadvantages are considered in detail.The main attention is paid to the systematization of data and tabulation of indicators for convenient comparison of dif-ferent technologies. The state of additive manufacturing technologies, as well as their prospects for development in the field of mechanical engineering, are considered in detail. The article provides a comprehensive overview of the technologies, including a description of the uniqueness of each type, its capabilities and limitations.The analysis of recent studies devoted to additive technologies showed the interest of the scientific community in the optimization of processes and physical and mechanical characteristics of products, features and directions of use of raw parts, features of printing parameters, scaling of technologies, applications in various industries. The existing literature on this sub-ject is either limited to only fundamental concepts or is too disparate and does not present systematic data, making it difficult for professionals to study. The final tables presented in the work make it possible to conduct a comparative characterization of technologies without spending a lot of time, to single out a technology or several technologies, the capabilities and features of which make it possible to solve the tasks. The work contains a comprehensive overview of additive manufacturing technologies and provides practical value for specialists, scientists and engineers working in the field of mechanical engineering. It helps to understand the potential and advantages of each technology and provides important information for choosing the optimal approach when applying additive manufacturing.
