description Metals are significant materials used in high torque applications such as drive shafts. In recent years, 3D printing has gained much popularity in manufacturing of engineering parts for industrial applications. However, there has not been any investigation into the use of 3D printing for manufacturing of materials for high torque applications. This paper presents a review on using 3D printing for parts used in high torque applications, such as drive shaft. Current state-of-the-art in drive shaft design and fabrication was discussed. Requirements of a 3D printed drive shaft are presented. Finally, the challenges and potential of using 3D printing to produce high torque bearing parts are discussed.
