Evaluation ranking of ARs effectiveness considering the ongoing monitoring techniques and how the design and process may reduce manufacturing costs

	Evaluation of monitoring and cost category scores
	Monitoring	Costs
Ars No.	Ongoing monitoring techniques are used to study the AR evolution	The design and size of ARs are efficiently managed without the need for heavy machinery, reducing associated costs for logistics	The AM process eliminates the need for post-processing finishing, reducing production and workforce costs	Sub-total score
