Objects are fabricated by bonding sheets of material within this context of the additive manufacturing process. Composite-based additive manufacturing method and the laminated object manufacturing falls under this category of the additive manufacturing process.Inkjet technique is employed in case of a composite-based additive manufacturing technique that deposits aqueous-based solution on each fiber sheet. After the deposition is completed, the thermoplastic powder is deposited onto the fiber sheet that adheres to the aqueous solution. Excess thermoplastic powder is removed and the fiber sheets are stacked together, compressed and heated in the oven so that the powdered matrix gets fused. Excess fibers are removed using sandblasting and therefore the final product is obtained. As the fibers are oriented randomly, composite-based additive manufactured parts have lower strength in comparison to that manufactured using laminated object manufacturing [25].In the case of the laminated object manufacturing process, parts are built through a combination of additive as well as subtractive techniques. In this case of sheet lamination technique, stacks of fiber sheets are used [26]. Fiber sheets are cut using laser and the different sheets are stacked together and bonded by pressure, heat and adhesive. The sheet material can be any form of fiber preform. A good fiber and interlayer adhesion were revealed with the usage of prepreg sheets consisting of E-glass fibers and epoxy matrix. As a result tensile as well as flexural strength were reported to be 716 MPa and 1.19 GPa respectively [26] The process of laminated object manufacturing can be enhanced further if integrated with the mechanism of curved layer building. The mechanism aids in the eradication of stair case effect minimized wastage of material and has the potential capability to align fibers continuously on the directed curvature [27].One of the key advantages of laminated object manufacturing is the capability to produce high strength parts in comparison to conventional methods. Furthermore, the need for support structure is eliminated cent percent. However, extra sheets are required to take care of overhanging features which could ultimately result in wastage of material. Also, the fabrication of intricate internal features is not possible with the laminated object manufacturing technique owing to the restriction in the removal of unwanted material
