| Abstract |
Digital manufacturing empowers supply chains with enhanced information and resource flows. As a state-of-the-art technology related to Industry 4.0, additive manufacturing (AM) presents many possibilities for enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of supply chains embracing circular economy (CE). In this study, we use the content analysis method to analyse 39 papers to understand how AM supply chains can be successfully implemented while overcoming the inherent limitations of CE. The results show that features of AM provide various opportunities and challenges to mitigate the inherent limitations of CE. Copyright (C) 2022 The Authors. |
