The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) rapidly achieved global pandemic status. The pandemic created huge demand for relevant medical and personal protective equipment (PPE) and put unprecedented pressure on the healthcare system within a very short span of time. Moreover, the supply chain system faced extreme disruption as a result of the frequent and severe lockdowns across the globe. In such a situation, additive manufacturing (AM) becomes a supplementary manufacturing process to meet the explosive demands and to ease the health disaster worldwide. Providing the extensive design customization, a rapid manufacturing route, eliminating lengthy assembly lines and ensuring low manufacturing lead times, the AM route could plug the immediate supply chain gap, whilst mass production routes restarted again. The AM community joined the fight against COVID-19 by producing components for medical equipment such as ventilators, nasopharyngeal swabs and PPE such as face masks and face shields. The aim of this article is to systematically summarize and to critically analyze all major efforts put forward by the AM industry, academics, researchers, users, and individuals. A step-by-step account is given summarizing all major additively manufactured products that were designed, invented, used, and produced during the pandemic in addition to highlighting some of the potential challenges. Such a review will become a historical document for the future as well as a stimulus for the next generation AM community.

增材制造和 COVID-19 挑战:深入研究

严重急性呼吸系统综合症冠状病毒 2 (SARS-CoV-2) 迅速达到全球大流行状态。大流行对相关医疗和个人防护设备(PPE)产生了巨大的需求,并在很短的时间内给医疗保健系统带来了前所未有的压力。此外,由于全球频繁和严重的封锁,供应链系统面临极端中断。在这种情况下,增材制造(AM)成为满足爆炸性需求和缓解全球健康灾难的补充制造工艺。提供广泛的设计定制、快速的制造路线、消除冗长的装配线并确保较短的制造提前期,AM 路线可以填补直接的供应链缺口,同时重新启动大规模生产路线。AM 社区通过生产用于医疗设备(例如呼吸机、鼻咽拭子)和 PPE(例如面罩和面罩)的组件来对抗 COVID-19。本文的目的是系统地总结和批判性地分析 AM 行业、学者、研究人员、用户和个人提出的所有重大努力。除了强调一些潜在的挑战外,还提供了分步说明,总结了大流行期间设计、发明、使用和生产的所有主要增材制造产品。这样的审查将成为未来的历史文件,也是对下一代 AM 社区的激励。鼻咽拭子和个人防护装备,例如面罩和面罩。本文的目的是系统地总结和批判性地分析 AM 行业、学者、研究人员、用户和个人提出的所有重大努力。除了强调一些潜在的挑战外,还提供了分步说明,总结了大流行期间设计、发明、使用和生产的所有主要增材制造产品。这样的审查将成为未来的历史文件,也是对下一代 AM 社区的激励。鼻咽拭子和个人防护装备,例如面罩和面罩。本文的目的是系统地总结和批判性地分析 AM 行业、学者、研究人员、用户和个人提出的所有重大努力。除了强调一些潜在的挑战外,还提供了分步说明,总结了大流行期间设计、发明、使用和生产的所有主要增材制造产品。这样的审查将成为未来的历史文件,也是对下一代 AM 社区的激励。除了强调一些潜在的挑战外,还提供了分步说明,总结了大流行期间设计、发明、使用和生产的所有主要增材制造产品。这样的审查将成为未来的历史文件,也是对下一代 AM 社区的激励。除了强调一些潜在的挑战外,还提供了分步说明,总结了大流行期间设计、发明、使用和生产的所有主要增材制造产品。这样的审查将成为未来的历史文件,也是对下一代 AM 社区的激励。
