To reduce the volume of defects and increase the fault tolerance of the product, improve the condition of the workplace, work convenience, accounting for finished products and other important factors of the high-quality production cycle, there are a sufficient number of methods and practices used in many fields (automotive, mechanical engineering, energy, etc.). One of these methods is DMAIC, which involves the introduction of the 6 sigma method into the technological sphere of additive manufacturing product quality management in order to improve its quality at these enterprises. The “define-measure-analyze-improve-control” cycle is used by the author in the context of this study to analyze the possible optimization of production procedures at additive manufacturing enterprises by selective laser melting (SLM). The analysis of production practices and suggestions for improving the quality of manufactured products, based on the DMAIC, method, will improve the current additive manufacturing processes at large technological enterprises and will be able to positively affect the quality characteristics of products. With the help of a technological approach based on the DFSS cycle, through the application of each step sequentially, an effective change in the positive side of quality as the production process itself is possible: the manufacturing accuracy increases at each stage, the process is modernized with each new cycle, based on previous results; as well as finished products: the number of defects decreases, the mechanical characteristics of products improve.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Несмотря на повсеместное внедрение 3D-печати на машиностроительных производствах в рамках Индустрии 4.0, качество изготовленной продукции на данный момент требует регламентации и усовершенствования. Для уменьшения объемов брака и повышения отказоустойчивости продукта, улучшения состояния рабочего места, удобства труда, учета готовых изделий и других немаловажных факторов качественного производственного цикла существует достаточное число методов и практик, применяемых во многих сферах (автомобильная, машиностроение, энергетика и т.д.). Один из этих методов - DMAIC (ОИАСК), предполагающий внедрение в технологическую сферу управления качеством продукции аддитивного производства метода 6 сигм с целью повышения ее качества на данных предприятиях. Цикл «определить - измерить - анализировать - улучшить - контроль» используется автором в контексте данного исследования для проведения анализа возможной оптимизации производственных процедур на предприятиях аддитивного производства методом селективного лазерного плавления (SLM). Анализ производственных практик и предложения по улучшению качества изготовленной продукции, основанные на методе ОИАСК, позволяют усовершенствовать нынешние процессы аддитивного производства на крупных технологических предприятиях и смогут положительно повлиять на качественные характеристики изделий. С помощью технологического подхода на основании цикла DFSS, благодаря применению последовательно каждого из шагов, возможно эффективное изменение в положительную сторону качества как самого процесса производства: вырастает точность изготовления на каждом этапе, процесс модернизируется с каждым новым циклом на основе предыдущих результатов, так и готовой продукции: уменьшается количество брака, улучшаются механические характеристики изделий.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>additive technologies</kwd><kwd>quality management</kwd><kwd>artificial intelligence</kwd><kwd>simulation modeling</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>аддитивные технологии</kwd><kwd>управление качеством</kwd><kwd>искусственный интеллект</kwd><kwd>имитационное моделирование</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Gerger A, Firuzan AR.
