Metal 3D printing via laser powder bed fusion is an expensive process, one which leaves little room for failure in postprocessing steps. ” Limiting machining to additive manufacturing postprocessing steps is a massive time and cost saver for KAM, but even these operations can act as bottlenecks when unoptimized.
