Abstract: Abstract Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology could revolutionize the way industry makes products. However, there are still challenges that must be overcome since these are slowing down AM adoption by industry. Therefore, this research aims to uncover these limitations based on a systematic literature review. The findings of this study show that there are five global challenges that AM is currently dealing with, technical aspects, supporting technologies, management of operations, supply chain configuration, and legal innovation.
