Item description from seller

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich BWL - Beschaffung, Produktion, Logistik, einseitig bedruckt, Note: A, Heriot-Watt-University Edinburgh, Veranstaltung: Logistics and Supply Chain Strategy, Sprache: Deutsch, Anmerkungen: Note A = 70 , Abstract: Rapid manufacturing can be defined as the use of a computer aided design (CAD)-based automated additive manufacturing process to construct parts that are used directly as finished products or components (Hopkinson, Hague and Dickens, 2006, p.1).

Nonetheless, with recent research and development, improved fabbing machines have been developed that can already treat different materials such as ceramics, metals, nylons, polymers and others (Reeves, 2008; The Economist, 2011 b).

The aim of the available report is to illuminate these characteristics and benefits with respect to predicted impacts on the demand of logistics services as well as supply chains in particular. Furthermore, opportunities for logistics companies of gaining competitive advantages from the development of rapid manufacturing are being suggested.…
