About
Massimo Guerrini is a leading researcher in advanced manufacturing, with a primary focus on additive manufacturing processes for large-scale industrial applications. His work centers on laser metal deposition (LMD), a critical technology for producing high-value components in the aerospace and oil and gas sectors. Guerrini’s major contribution lies in systematically comparing motion systems for LMD, notably through his highly cited 2023 study comparing eight-axis articulated robots with five-axis CNC gantry machines for fabricating large components. This work, which has garnered 12 citations, provides essential guidance for industry on optimizing deposition head mobility, balancing precision, flexibility, and cost. Beyond this, his research addresses process parameters, material properties, and the integration of robotics into additive workflows, helping to bridge the gap between experimental lab-scale setups and real-world production environments. Guerrini’s impact is evident in the growing adoption of his comparative frameworks by both academic researchers and industrial engineers seeking to scale up LMD for complex geometries. His achievements include advancing the understanding of how robotic articulation can enhance deposition efficiency and part quality, making him a key figure in the evolution of large-scale additive manufacturing.
