BOIVIE, K.; KARLSEN, R.  e  YSTGAARD, P.. The concept of hybrid manufacturing for high performance parts. S. Afr. J. Ind. Eng. [online]. 2012, vol.23, n.2, pp.106-115. ISSN 2224-7890.

The development of additive manufacturing technology (AMT) for metallic materials has reached a level where the processes are capable of producing complex geometries with industrial grade material properties. However, AMT is still hardly competitive with conventional (subtractive) machining with regard to production speed, accuracy, and surface quality. To address these limitations, AMT can be combined with subtractive manufacturing technology into a hybrid manufacturing system. This paper introduces the concept of hybrid manufacturing with examples from ongoing industrial case studies, and describes the requirements for the future development of an integrated hybrid manufacturing system.
