Hello,

There are three interesting books that I recommend for students:

- Additive Manufacturing Technologies: http://link.springer.com/book/10.1007%2F978-1-4419-1120-9

- Additive Manufacturing: https://www.crcpress.com/Additive-Manufacturing/Bandyopadhyay-Bose/p/book/9781482223590

- 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing: http://www.worldscientific.com/worldscibooks/10.1142/10200

Regards.

Renan

This is the best:

Hí, a very good for graduate level:

Rapid Prototyping, Principles and aplications. Chua C.K.,Leong K.F. and Lim C.S.

Nanyang Technological University, Singapure

Hi

I think that the best book is 

Gibson, Ian, Rosen, David, Stucker, Brent,  "Additive Manufacturing Technologies, 3D Printing, Rapid Prototyping, and Direct Digital Manufacturing"

I found it very clear, with complete description of available technologies.

Hi Murat, how U doing?!

It's kinda difficult to find a literature that is complete about the matter.

As U know, there's no complete or perfect author or book.

Every author focus on a determined issue.

As U going to be the lecturer/teacher, I recommend U to have a butcher's rough n' ready or read a few of them, and choose each point of each book is suitable for the acquaintance/knowledge level of your students.

There are several 'Beginner's guides' all across the web if U will...

Could be as interesting starting point, but only U'll know, again, the level of the students and where U want to take them (depending on the nature of their course).

Aight?!

Cheers!

I can recommend Wohler's report - a Bible of state-of-the-art in 3d-printing: technologies, processes, materials, applications, etc.

Hi,

I would also like to recommend the book "Additive Manufacturing Technologies" from Gibson, Rosen, and Stucker. Very well written and provides a good overview.

Hi,

You can check on Springer this brand new book - "Additive Manufacturing – Developments in Training and Education".

I would recommend " Gebhardt, A., 2012. Understanding additive manufacturing: rapid prototyping-rapid tooling-rapid manufacturing. Carl Hanser Verlag GmbH Co KG. " book for you.

I've used the "Gebhardt, A., 2012. Understanding additive manufacturing: rapid prototyping-rapid tooling-rapid manufacturing. Carl Hanser Verlag GmbH Co KG" book several semesters for a course I taught on AM. It was excellent and I highly recommend it - fairly inexpensive too.

I've used these books in undergraduate course : "3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing: Principles and Applications of Rapid Prototyping 5th Edition", 2017 by Chee Kai Chua and Kah Fai Leong ; publisher World Scientific and "Additive Manufacturing technologies : 3D Printing, Rapid Prototyping, and Direct Digital Manufacturing" by Ian Gibson, David Rosen and Brent Stucker; publisher Springer.
