The 3D printed microturbine engine developed by Technion - Israel Institute of Technology and PTC software seen here in a cut-away showing the internal structure. One aspect of how industrial 3D ...

It is known that 3D printing makes manufacturing a lot easier and more precise than traditional manufacturing methods such as molding or machining. Some printers can 3D print using metals and alloys, ...

In 2014, eight engineers started a secret project behind the walls of GE Aviation’s headquarters. Their challenge? Build an aircraft engine with 3D printing instead of traditional manufacturing. The ...

Researchers demonstrated the first fully 3D-printed, droplet-emitting electrospray engine. The low-cost device can be fabricated more quickly than traditional thrusters, potentially from on board a ...

The 3D printing (digital manufacturing) market has had a lot of hype over the past few years. Most recently, it seems this technology arena has entered the "trough of disillusionment," as 3D printing ...

It's one thing to 3D-print something as advanced as a jet engine, but it's another to fuel it up and push the start button. That's the step that GE Aviation took when it recently fired up a simple jet ...

A Brooklyn startup called Launcher has made its rocket engine’s entire combustion chamber in one 3D print. Launcher received $1.5m in Air Force funding during a call for launch technology—the Air ...

The new John Deere tractors rolling off the manufacturing line in Mannheim, Germany, have a first for the company: a metal 3D-printed engine part. The global manufacturer of agricultural and turf ...

3D printing continues to creep its way into the rocket industry. SpaceX launched its first 3D-printed part, the body of a main oxidizer valve, back in 2014, for example. And Blue Origin is ...

Chennai's Agnikul Cosmos has tested 'Agnite', a 3D-printed booster engine. This innovation simplifies production, shortens mission prep time, and validates large-scale 3D printing for rocket ...
