SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australian researchers unveiled the world's first 3D-printed jet engine on Thursday, a manufacturing breakthrough that could lead to cheaper, lighter and more fuel-efficient jets.
The company, believes the material will be "game changing" for building gas turbines for aerospace propulsion and industrial power generation.
Is it real? Well, yes and no. “While it’s not to scale, this 1.5 inch long model was made entirely from direct metal laser melting and required no assembly,” explains GE in another tweet. Does it work ...
