  text: The costs of additive manufactured parts often seem too high in comparison
    to those of traditionally manufactured parts, as the information about major cost
    drivers, especially for additive manufactured metal parts, is weak. Therefore,
    a lifecycle analysis of additive manufactured parts is needed to understand and
    rate the cost drivers that act as the largest contributors to unit costs, and
    to provide a focus for future cost reduction activities for the Additive Manufacturing
    (AM) technology. A better understanding of the cost structure will help to compare
    the AM costs with the opportunity costs of the classical manufacturing technologies
    and will make it easier to justify the use of AM manufactured parts. This paper
    will present work in progress and methodology based on a sample investigated with
    business process analysis / simulation and activity based costing. In addition,
    cost drivers associated with metal AM process will be rated.
