Create a 3D CAD model of the part.
Create a physical prototype.
Perform a stress analysis.
Conduct a market survey.
Answer explanation
Before creating an STL file and G-code, engineers or operators must first create a 3D CAD model of the part. This model serves as the digital blueprint for the additive manufacturing process.

What solid modeling tool do engineers use to create 3D part models for AM?
Computer-aided design (CAD)
Finite element analysis (FEA)
Rapid prototyping (RP)
Material requirement planning (MRP)
Answer explanation
Engineers use Computer-aided design (CAD) tools to create detailed 3D part models for additive manufacturing (AM). CAD software allows for precise modeling and design, essential for successful AM processes.

What removable AM components fortify an AM part as it is built?
Support structure
Base plate
Cooling fins
Heat sink
Answer explanation
The support structure is crucial in additive manufacturing (AM) as it provides stability during the build process. It is removable after printing, allowing the final part to maintain its intended shape and integrity.

What term refers to manufacturers using AM as an intermediary step during a traditional manufacturing operation?
Secondary process
Primary process
Final assembly
Quality control
Answer explanation
The term 'Secondary process' refers to the use of additive manufacturing (AM) as an intermediary step in traditional manufacturing, enhancing efficiency and allowing for complex designs before final production.

What additive manufacturing method involves sintering granulated material to create a part?
Powder bed fusion (PBF)
Fused deposition modeling (FDM)
Stereolithography (SLA)
Laminated object manufacturing (LOM)
Answer explanation
Powder bed fusion (PBF) is an additive manufacturing method that uses a laser to sinter granulated material, typically metal or plastic powders, layer by layer to create a solid part, making it the correct choice.

What AM process did manufacturers develop in the 1990s that allowed them to produce metal parts?
Direct metal laser sintering (DMLS)
Selective laser melting (SLM)
Electron beam melting (EBM)
Binder jetting
Answer explanation
In the 1990s, manufacturers developed Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), which enabled the production of metal parts through a layer-by-layer process using a laser to sinter powdered metal, making it a key advancement in additive manufacturing.

What AM material is available in filaments, liquids, and powders and used in material extrusion and selective laser sintering (SLS)?
Polymer
Metal
Ceramic
Composite
Answer explanation
Polymers are versatile materials available in filaments, liquids, and powders, making them suitable for both material extrusion and selective laser sintering (SLS) processes, unlike metals, ceramics, or composites.
