- Fashion Products Through Digital Manufacturing - A Case Study With FDM TechnologyPublication . Spahiu, Tatjana; Almeida, Henrique; Manavis, Athanasios; Kyratsis, PanagiotisWe live in a digital world comprising the use of computer systems applicable to every process of manufacturing. Digital manufacturing is present in almost all areas of production by linking systems and process required from conceptualization to the final product. Through the use of digital manufacturing fashion products are designed and manufactured. Case studies of using the tools of 3D CAD software modeling to create novel products as textile structures, accessories and shoes parts as heels are presented. Taking inspiration from several sources, customized models are designed and with the great power of additive manufacturing as FDM technology, a non-expensive compared to the other types of additive manufacturing technologies, is implemented in the manufacturing of 3D CAD models. Without restriction on design, 3D models generated form CAD software are print directly by avoiding other process related to traditional manufacturing. The rise of new technologies in digital manufacturing releases new opportunities for companies to foster productivity, customization and sustainability.
