Start the year off with a look at additive manufacturing

The breadth of AM applications is mind-bending to many. Few manufacturing processes cut across so many industrial sectors.

In the future, it will be thousands.

• Based on research for Wohlers Report 2021, investment in startups grew from $1.2 billion to $1.3 billion last year, despite a pandemic.
• Companies in aerospace, healthcare, energy, and consumer products are scaling operations and seeking cloud-based platforms and automation systems to support these efforts.
• As organizations scale, talent could become a problem.
• Other challenges are the adoption of industry standards and development of supply chains.
