Manufacturability of non-assembly joints fabricated in AlSi10Mg by selective laser melting

Selective Laser Melting is a promising Additive Manufacturing technology that makes possible the fabrication of
complex metallic components up to the production of mechanisms in one technological operation without the
need for a subsequent assembly. In order to permit the one-step fabrication of the joints, a lot of issues must be
considered to preserve their functionalities. In this work some of these aspects are investigated in order to
provide a manufacturability map of non-assembly joints taking into account the clearance, the joint shape and
