Cue the development of the 3D printed water jet engine (YouTube link, embedded below). The basic principle of operation is simple.

3D Printing Jet Engines GE has just demonstrated the 3D printing of a complete, functioning jet engine (the size of a football), able to achieve 33,000 RPM. 3D printing has been used for decades to ...

And then there's the Rolls Royce side of the story: Rolls-Royce is looking to use 3D printers to make lighter components for its aircraft engines, the company's head of technology strategy has said.

GE was able to create a working jet engine using an additive manufacturing technique known as direct metal laser melting. The resulting engine's turbine achieved 33,000 rpm.

Science 3D-printed mini jet engine revved up to 33,000rpm GE creates a little-engine-that-could using an advanced metal 3D-printing technique and then put it through testing like a full-size engine.

As a result, it’s incredibly simple and basic compared to the jet engines powering modern airliners. But the experiment helps add credence to the idea that 3D printing will eventually be used ...

In the incredible evolution of 3D-printing capabilities, GE engineers have made a tiny jet engine that can go 33,000 rotations per minute. As they report, ...

LAKELAND – A grant awarded to a Florida Polytechnic University professor could mean more and better jet and rocket parts could be 3D-printed in the future. Dr. Sanna Siddiqui, assistant ...

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 ...
