Abstract :
Innovation and finding new ways to do things in a smarter and more efficient way is necessary for organizations to stay competitive in an increasingly demanding environment. One such innovation is additive manufacturing (AM). This emerging technology is receiving increased attention and appears to embody a technology push, now that the number of applications is growing in an area that used to be predominantly focused on creating rapid prototypes.
