Welding identical parts with predictable properties in the same places is one thing, and robots are ideal for it*. So long as there's a need for custom fabrication and patching damaged parts there will be work for human welders.
*Probably why many earlier robots were used for just that, although spot-welding rather than arc.
Laser sintering is commonly used the term when plastic parts are produced: https://www.additively.com/en/...
I'm not sure what you're saying here. If you mean that the word "sintering" is used mainly when plastics are involved then I'm afraid you're mistaken. It's used when referring to sintering as opposed to melting; melting and sintering are quite different and produce very different finished parts. The question of whether plastics or metals are normally sintered or melted is unrelated.
Why would there be any size limitations to laser sintering?
Because the bed holding the part and the powder that's going to be sintered needs to be moved with very good precision. It also needs to be at least as deep as the part you're making. It's generally very difficult to get large things to move small distances.
The ones you mention are American companies and thus does not have to follow European law...
...unless they trade in Europe.
perhaps you can show us where the "eject" button is?

What do you mean, "they sell coffee"?
They do, for a given value of "coffee".
