The tools to create the world we live in are changing substantially. The digital age isabout to penetrate into manufacturing practice. Machines and products become virtually connected and new manufacturing technologies, commonly subsumed underthe term 3D printing, hold out the prospect of great flexibility in regards to productionfootprints and product customisation. These developments call today's traditionalstructures of product-making industries, which are primarily based on the conceptof centralised fabrication, into question. This volume collects contributions of multipledisciplines such as economics, production management, logistics, mechanicalengineering, and information technology aiming to present a holistic view on a digitalmanufacturing future including socioeconomic impacts of these new technologies.Contents Ashfaq/Haag: Emerging Trends and Opportunities in Digital Manufacturing - Gausemeier et al.: Additive Manufacturing: Costs, Strategy, Outlook - Triebs/Kampker: Rapid Additive Tooling for the Production of Tailor-madeE-Mobility Solutions - Koch/Jahnke: Product Piracy Protection via Additive Manufacturing - Klein/Berendonk/Struck: Robustness Optimization of Global Production Networks - Klein/Dederichs/Theißen: Lean Game 4.0 - IndustrialInternet Model Factory - Klein/Fengler/Struck: EPEI Simulation Tool for ProductionOptimization - Schwind: Information Logistics and Digital Manufacturing: How Information Can Reduce the Burden of Logistics - Wendt: Revenue Management Challenges in Digital Manufacturing Networks - Greveler: Risk Managementand Heuristic Risk Assessment of Industrial Control Systems - Haag: UniversalManufacturing Technologies for a Digitised Manufacturing Future - Eversmann: A NewKind of Social Order.
