Summary • MIM-Similar (Sintering): Powder base will offer high production rates and good detail. Extrusion will be niche or lower volume • Powder Bed Fusion: Will become more efficient but still highly expensive per part. Very good detail, material availability and mature process control. Industry of ancillaries advancing quickly • Directed Energy Deposition . Coarse deposition but great material control and low cost per part. Large to very large parts but limited production volume • Other. New technologies will https://am-power.de/en/insights/ continue to create many more exceptions to every example in 21 https://www.digitalalloys.com/blog/ TOMORROW’S MANUFACTURING TODAY this presentation
