Additive manufacturing processes, used for more than 25 years, are no longer confined to rapid prototyping applications. Mostly used nowadays in niche markets (medical applications, aerospace...) to manufacture metallic parts, they should provide improvements in terms of time-to-market, ecological impact and design compared to traditional industrial processes. Current metallic additive manufacturing studied in this paper are Selective Laser Sintering, Direct Metal Laser Sintering, Selective Laser Melting, Electron Beam Melting and Direct Metal Deposition. The performances of these processes are investigated through criteria derived from the time cost quality triangle and some prospects concerning these processes are given.

- A review on powder bed fusion technology of metal additive manufacturing (2017, methodology): “Supports can be generated and modified as per part requirement during pre-processing phase and the same has to be removed by mechanical treatment during post-processing phase [7].”
- Additive manufacturing of metallic components by selective electron beam melting — a review (2016, background): “Typical values are Ra = 11 μm and Ra = 25–35 μm for SLM and SEBM, respectively.(1) The higher roughness for SEBM compared to SLM results from larger powder particles, a larger layer thickness and a larger beam diameter.”
- Unlocking value for a circular economy through 3D printing: A research agenda (2017, background): “For instance, in metal additive manufacturing, more than 95% of the unused powder can be locally filtered and reused directly (Vayre et al., 2012; Faludi et al., 2015a), while the other 5% can be sent to a centralised recycling facility to produce virgin powder.”
