Resumo(s)

There is no doubt that massive customization of products and services is, nowadays, a regular trend over massive production, ultimately aimingat massive tailored production. Economies and societies are aiming at a merge between the natural, the built and the digital environments. The requirements of this shift have led to an enhanced approach to increase manufacturing sustainability, thus encouraging a straightforward approach to processes and products.1 More than 30 years ago, this was called Rapid Prototyping (RP) or Rapid Manufacturing (RM). However, currently, there have been significant efforts to develop not only prototypes, but also final (and optimized) products. Therefore, the term Direct Digital Manufacturing (DDM) emerged as the technology to, as the term states, directly convert computer models to physical parts.
