DESCRIPTION:Cristiano Tomassoni\, DML lecture\n\n- Title: "Additive Manufac
 turing: Emerging Opportunities for Microwave Components"\n- Place: Escuela
  Politécnica\, Universidad de Alcalá\, Sala S-202\n\nAbstract: The Addit
 ive Manufacturing (AM) technology\, also known as 3D-printing technology\,
  offers several interesting and attractive features\, including fast proto
 typing\, geometry flexibility\, easily customizable products\, and low cos
 t (in some cases). However\, using such technologies for microwave devices
  is not straightforward as AM has not been specifically developed for micr
 owave devices\, and in most cases\, some adaptation and post-processing is
  necessary. Furthermore\, there are many AM technologies available\, and i
 t is important to understand their characteristics before selecting one. I
 n the presentation\, an overview of the different AM technologies availabl
 e will be provided. Additionally\, an analysis of some of the most common 
 AM technologies used for the manufacturing of microwave components will be
  conducted in more detail\, with the help of several examples. Several mic
 rowave components manufactured with some of the most popular AM technologi
 es will be shown\, along with a detailed description of the manufacturing 
 process\, post-processing\, and all actions necessary to make the componen
 t perform well. Furthermore\, it will be shown how the flexibility of this
  technology allows the development of new classes of components with non-c
 onventional geometries that can be exploited to obtain high-performing com
 ponents in terms of compactness\, weight\, losses\, etc.\n\nSpeaker(s): Cr
