Expert Insight
Digital and Additive Manufacturing methods are an enabling technology for novel resource-saving production processes for the textile industry. The use of digital manufacturing technologies offers the possibility to apply certain textile functions individually, mask- and contact-free as well as three-dimensionally on textiles. This presentation provides an introduction to the possibilities and limitations of Additive Manufacturing processes for the functionalization of textile structures.
