Some of the key advantages of additive manufacturing are lower resource requirement, flexible design, faster production cycle, and sizeable savings on tooling over traditional manufacturing technologies like Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining, vacuum casting, and injection molding. The 3D printing market is finally moving into the production phase after more than 25 years of development. Increased government support in the form of funding is offering a strong impetus to the additive manufacturing industry. For instance, one of the leading national programs in the United States, called America Makes, has been exclusively committed to research in 3D printing and additive manufacturing technology. The program has been supported by a USD 90 million financing from the regional government, non-benefit divisions, and other businesses.
