“…Vayre et al (2012) propose a design process similar to that of Salonitis and Zarban, but add a step of design optimization based on a parametric CAD model after creating an initial design using TO. Orquéra et al (2017) propose a design method based on nine steps with the three main stages Introduction (steps 1-2), Designing with the opportunities and constraints of AM (steps 3-6), and Designing for manufacturing (steps 7-9). The Introduction stage corresponds to the system design category in the classification proposed in this paper, while the remaining steps are within the component design category.…”

Purpose This paper aims to review recent research in design for additive manufacturing (DfAM), including additive manufacturing (AM) terminology, trends, methods, classification of DfAM methods and software. The focus is on the design engineer’s role in the DfAM process and includes which design methods and tools exist to aid the design process. This includes methods, guidelines and software to achieve design optimization and in further steps to increase the level of design automation for metal AM techniques. The research has a special interest in structural optimization and the coupling between topology optimization and AM. Design/methodology/approach The method used in the review consists of six rounds in which literature was sequentially collected, sorted and removed. Full presentation of the method used could be found in the paper. Findings Existing DfAM research has been divided into three main groups – component, part and process design – and based on the review of existing DfAM methods, a proposal for a DfAM process has been compiled. Design support suitable for use by design engineers is linked to each step in the compiled DfAM process. Finally, the review suggests a possible new DfAM process that allows a higher degree of design automation than today’s process. Furthermore, research areas that need to be further developed to achieve this framework are pointed out. Originality/value The review maps existing research in design for additive manufacturing and compiles a proposed design method. For each step in the proposed method, existing methods and software are coupled. This type of overall methodology with connecting methods and software did not exist before. The work also contributes with a discussion regarding future design process and automation.

“…The activities are taken from current research in the field, which includes both overall design methods and tools, and research in specific areas. Examples of publications that present overall design methods with similar steps are Salonitis and Zarban [51], Orquera et al [44], and Ponche et al [46]. The proposed design levels and activities are presented in figure 7.…”

“…Different approaches to doing this are proposed in current research where Rodrigue and Rivette [48] propose a method supporting the reduction of parts in an existing assembly. Orquere et al [44] propose a more optimization-driven approach where kinematic and mechanical analyses are performed on simple representations of the products in order to identify part boundaries. Also Bin Maidin [39] proposes a simulation-driven approach where a database with different design features that take advantage of AM possibilities is combined once the boundaries have been defined.…”

“…The articles dealing with the design of a product or a part manufactured by AM are carried out with a specific objective. For the mechanical product design proposed in [5], the objective was for example to apply AM capabilities to functionally improve the system. To achieve this, topological optimization (TO) and functional improvements were both applied on each component.…”

Topological optimization (TO) is commonly used to design a part for additive manufacturing (AM), but rarely for entire systems including several parts. How can be optimized a mechanical system in which each optimized part changes the boundary conditions? A Design method called TOMS (Topological Optimization of a Mechanical System) has been developed to take into account the variation of the boundary conditions when optimizing parts. When the using TOMS method the loops are performed until the optimization converges. The object of this article is to propose a discussion on the quantification of this convergence based on a practical case study.
