Abstract

The geometric freedom associated with additive manufacturing (AM) processes create new challenges in defining, communicating, and assessing the dimensional and geometric accuracy of parts. Starting from a review of the ASME-GD&T and ISO-GPS current practices, a new approach is proposed in this paper. The new approach combines current tolerancing practices with an enriched voxel-based volumetric representation scheme to overcome the limitations of standard methods. Moreover, the new approach enables a linkage between product design optimization and product verification with respect to the AM process chain. A case study is considered to demonstrate the concept.
