Design for Additive Manufacturing: How to Cut 3D Printing Costs Without Compromising Performance

This guide highlights these three proven strategies:

Lowering material costs

by optimizing part geometry for both structural performance and efficient printability

Reducing labour expenses

through designs that simplify assembly and minimize manual post- processing

Avoiding costly reworks

by aligning designs with your printer’s capabilities, material properties, and end-use requirements printability

Unlock three powerful DfAM strategies to optimize part design, streamline production, and reduce total cost in additive manufacturing.

In additive design and manufacturing, smarter design is your best cost-cutting tool. This actionable guide breaks down how applying part design for additive manufacturing (DfAM) principles can dramatically reduce part costs without sacrificing strength, speed, or functionality.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Use lattice structures and FEA tools to lightweight parts and cut down material use
  • Consolidate assemblies into single prints and design for faster additive manufacturing post-processing
  • Prevent surprises by matching designs to your printer’s real-world limitations and your application’s demands

Whether you’re building prototypes or end-use parts, our free guide gives you the practical know-how to design leaner, print smarter, and produce more for less.
