If it feels like additive manufacturing and 3D printing technologies are finding a place in the mainstream of everyday products and life, it’s because they are. It has been a long road to get here, but today additive technologies are finally in the conversations of engineers and product designers at the earliest planning and design stages of making things. Although there are still plenty of various challenges to solve and roadblocks to many different applications where additive could be used, lots of real, commercial things and parts are manufactured via additive processes around the world today.
In fact, earlier this year, Additive Manufacturing Research (AM Research) published a new iteration of one of its most ambitious additive market tracking projects, which attempts to put a number
