This research presents an analysis of the effects of different cutting angles on the side milling of Inconel 718 products manufactured with the Wire and Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) technique. Considering that this manufacturing technology can build near-net shape products, its surface quality is deemed unqualified as a final product, requiring a post-processing step. In this paper, three different angles-0°, 35°, and 90-are compared, looking for possible differences regarding its machinability. As the alloy in question is a material known for being difficult to machine, and the samples were produced with the additive manufacturing technique that created peculiar characteristics, it was deemed necessary to analyze different aspects of the machining process: the surface quality, tool wear, and cutting forces for all three cases, and to rank the angles regarding these results. With analog experiments with the same alloy but cold-rolled, it was possible to infer that not only is the 0-degree angle is the best option for milling, but the anisotropy of the WAAM samples could be the major source of the differences in the milling results.

3D printing efficiency, as a key indicator of additive manufacturing technology, directly affects its competitiveness in rapid prototyping, small batch production, and even large-scale industrial applications. Compared with traditional manufacturing methods, the high efficiency of 3D printing is often considered a bottleneck, hindering its application across various fields. Herein, a versatile and efficient strategy is proposed, namely, the dimensional reduction printing (DRP) process, to break the obstacle of high efficiency of 3D printing.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze gingival fibroblast proliferation on additively manufactured polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) groups with different surface characteristics namely no treatment group (NTG) and customized 250 µm diameter porosity (AM-250G) group.
Materials And Methods: 3D-printed NTG was compared for its influence on growth of cells to a additively manufactured surface with porosity (AM-250G). For each group (NTG, AM-250G) 20 samples of material were tested.
