Gedruckte Motoren treiben die nächste industrielle Revolution voran – NASA – Bemühungen, Motoren im 3D-Druckverfahren herzustellen, führen zu erheblichen Einsparungen in der Raketentechnik und darüber hinaus

From the article

>Printing aluminum engine parts could save significant time, money, and weight for future spacecraft. Elementum 3D Inc., a partner on the project, is now making those benefits available to the commercial space industry and beyond.

>The hot fire test was the culmination of a relationship between NASA and Elementum that began shortly after the company was founded in 2014 to make more materials available for 3D printing. Based in Erie, Colorado, the company infuses metal alloys with particles of other materials to alter their properties and make them amenable to additive manufacturing. This became the basis of Elementum’s Reactive Additive Manufacturing (RAM) process.
