Evolution phases in the scope of AM
First phase
AM technologies to produce only prototypes
low cost production
Reduced time to market
Second phase
AM in creating finished parts
Direct digital manufacturing
Not need long production line
third phase
Enabling larger production volumen
Efforts targeted to making low cost AM
Most influential and efective on consuming and manufacturing
