Abstract
In 1959 R.P. Feynman has presented the concept and strategy of micro- and nanotechnology development. Their introduction to the practice took place after working out the scanning tunneling microscopy (1981) and atomic force microscopy (1985). In the further development of micro- and nanotechnology the micro and nano electromechanical systems (MEMS, NEMS) have been worked. MEMS and NEMS are widely applied in majority of modern equipment and the production of the equipment increases about 17÷20% per year since 1990s. MEMS and NEMS manufacture usually is a difficult technological problem because of small dimensions and complex outside and inside structures. In such cases the application of additive manufacturing processes can be very promising. In the paper the possibilities of additive manufacturing processes applications, mainly in microtechnologies, is presented.
