| dc.description.abstract | Additive manufacturing (AM), a transformative technology in modern manufacturing, offers design freedom and
reduced material waste. However, understanding the environmental impacts of AM processes is imperative for
sustainable adoption. Metal additive manufacturing using powder sheets (MAPS) is a newly designed process to
overcome powder handling and recycling issues associated with the powder bed fusion (PBF) processes. This
transformative approach in 3D metal printing reduces safety risks, boosts efficiency, and enables the creation of
complex multi-material components. In this study, MAPS process was investigated from the perspective of
sustainability and circular economy using a life cycle assessment (LCA) method. The results provide critical
insights into the sustainability performance of AM technologies, specifically the MAPS process, offering valuable
guidance for informed decision-making in the context of eco-conscious manufacturing. This study might also serve
as a pivotal reference for advancing the ecological credentials of AM in diverse industrial applications. | en |
