CIMdata’s Director for Additive Manufacturing Strategy, James White, recently shared his views on Risk and Additive Manufacturing.
In his recent blog posting, James asks the question:
What’s stopping more companies converting from traditional expensive dedicated tooling methods of manufacture, to Additive Manufacturing?
When considering the reasons for this he says,
“There are many barriers to making the switch, including repeatability, quality, time, cost, and education on how to design for AM, all of which are steadily being addressed, but there’s another reason which isn’t so obvious: RISK."
-James White, CIMdata, Inc.
What do you think about RISK being a less obvious barrier to the adoption of AM?
