Abstract
Additive Manufacturing (AM) moved the boundaries of design freedom increasing the complexity of strategies and manufacturing possibilities. To help practitioners in optimizing design choices Multi-Criteria Decision-Making tools support the design process providing screening/ranking among different alternatives, considering several design requirements. This paper proposes a hybrid decision-making tool to support the eco-design process dedicated to parts realized through AM. Future work should focus on the testing of the proposed model and further improvement of criteria selection such as considering more environmental- or performance-related indicators to enable a more detailed comparison of multiple design requirementsI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
