ABOUT SIMONE MAFFIA
I specialize in metal additive manufacturing, a field that I am passionate about and driven to optimize. My research focuses on developing and improving laser metal deposition (LMD) processes for large components in the aerospace and oil and gas industries, using advanced monitoring and control systems to enhance productivity, efficiency, and sustainability.With more than 5 years of experience in process development and engineering, I have led and contributed to numerous multidisciplinary projects that have shaped the field. For example, I developed a novel LMD process for gas turbine components that achieved a 5x increase in productivity and a 50% improvement in environmental performance compared to standard conditions. I also explored and assessed commercial solutions and suppliers for LMD systems and devices, and designed and installed optical process monitoring and control systems on the LMD machine. Additionally, I have taught and tutored students in manufacturing technology courses at Politecnico di Milano and other institutions, sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm for the field.
