Flexible production of various parts on same machine type relinquishes expensive retooling of traditional
manufacturing equipment, allowing businesses to use AM to bridge supply gaps
Production costs largely independent of location as labor costs of operating the machine are of minor importance;
AM is becoming more and more cost competitive as machine productivity increases
Next generation products already include AM in their design processes facilitating the transition
