The Role of Additive Manufacturing in Production of the Future

Additive manufacturing (AM) is the process of adding layers of material — most commonly plastics or resins, and increasingly metals — to produce products according to precise digital plans. The technology introduces a fundamentally different approach to making products when compared to the traditional, subtractive manufacturing process of reducing material to get to the final product. With AM, products are produced using only the material necessary, therefore minimizing scrap.
