Why is additive manufacturing supposed to suck? Additive enables fast, cost-effective design optimization with 3D printing. Plastic models allow cheap iterations. Sounds great, but there’s a downside.
Engineering often lacks real-world production skills, making efficient design harder. Additive tempts engineers to create complex geometries without understanding processes.
Additive simplifies CAD to component but undervalues machining, which requires programming and tool management. For accuracy and productivity, machining still leads.
