  - Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present Design Rules for additive manufacturing
    and a method for their development. Design/methodology/approach – First, a process-independent
    method for the development of Design Rules was worked out. Therefore, geometrical
    standard elements and attributes that characterize the elements’ shapes have been
    defined. Next, the standard elements have been manufactured with different attribute
    values with Laser Sintering, Laser Melting and Fused Deposition Modeling, and
    their geometrical quality was examined. From the results, Design Rules for additive
    manufacturing were derived and summarized in a catalogue. Findings – Due to the
    process independent method, Design Rules were developed that apply for the different
    considered additive manufacturing technologies equally. These Design Rules are
    completely function-independent and easily transferable to individual part designs.
    Research limitations/implications – The developed Design Rules can only apply
    for the considered boundary conditions. To extend the Design Rules’ validity,
    their applicability should be proven for other boundary conditions. Practical
    implications – The developed Design Rules practically support the design of technical
    parts. Additionally they can be used for training and teaching in the field of
    “design for additive manufacturing”. Originality/value – The developed Design
    Rules constitute a first step toward general Design Rules for Additive Manufacturing.
    Thus, they might form a suitable basis for further scientific approaches, and
    the Design Rules can be used to set up teaching documentations for lessons and
    seminars.@eng
