Abstract
Additive manufacturing (AM) became an advanced research topic due to its ability to manufacture complex shapes. But the ability to achieve predictable and repeatable shapes is critical. Therefore, to optimize the design of an additive manufactured product, tolerancing is a key issue. This paper focuses on geometrical quality assessment of an AM product. It includes a process oriented geometrical model to predict the surface roughness and dimensional deviations, and a geometrical simulation tool to assess the impacts of these deviations on the geometrical behaviour of the joint. An application of the approach is illustrated through a case study.
