ABSTRACT

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a very adaptable fabrication method that enables users to quickly produce complicated parts intended for specific applications. Additive manufacturing offers several advantages. In particular, combining it with other traditional manufacturing approaches, such as casting and machining, assists in resolving well-known problems, such as constrained maximum build volume, slow production speed, limited precision, and ineffective surface finish. Furthermore, it is also possible to mass-produce composite materials for applications with specific performance requirements. This chapter focused on two aspects of the subject: (i) the classification of the hybrid additive manufacturing (HAM) process for composite materials, and (ii) the applicability of HAM processes in industrial use. The study’s main objective is to classify the most recent progress in the HAM of composite materials for researchers and to draw attention to the problems in this area.
