Part / assembly consolidation Reduce required parts and manufacturing costs by consolidating assemblies. Weight reduction Part consolidation and 3D printing’s design freedom results in a lighter part. Waste reduction Only the required material is used to create a part. In powder-bed technologies, leftover powders can be reused.
