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 ...

Printing a model jet engine is quite an accomplishment. But it wasn’t enough for [linus3d]. He wanted to redesign it to have a turbojet, an afterburner, and a variable exhaust nozzle. You can see how ...

3D printed materials have come a long way in the last decade or so as printers have become more and more mainstream. Printers can use all kinds of different plastics with varying physical ...

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 ...

3D printing for rocket engines is making a lot of headlines lately. In the last few weeks, we've told you about Aerojet Rocketdyne building and hot-firing a 3D-printed rocket engine and NASA's ...

We've only just begun to see the huge impact 3D-printing technology will have on manufacturing, and the aerospace industry is a prime example. Earlier this year we saw the first example of a ...

MIT engineers have demonstrated the first fully 3D-printed, droplet-emitting electrospray engine. The device, which would be ideal for enabling small satellites to make in-orbit maneuvers, can be ...

Beehive Industries, a company that 3D prints jet engines for unmanned military vehicles, will ramp up production at its Knoxville facility with the help of a new $12.4 million contract sponsored by ...

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 ...
