Rolls-Royce starts 3D printing engine engine parts.

18.11.2013. Slowly, but still 3D print takes its position in the production process. Printing is faster, much cheaper, more efficient. On order at present, you can make any detail. But up to now something as important as an aircraft engine has never been on the 3D list of a printing complex.

Rolls-Royce plans to bring 3D printing to a new level to produce spare parts for aircraft engines. The accuracy of 3D printing is now at the highest level, because there can be no error and there is not even the smallest error.

3D seal parts will be much faster and also easier to create lighter components of certain mechanisms. At this stage, the company will check the ingredients carefully and test them, to hold off a few years of their intended use. Dr. Henner Uopenhens, head of technology 3D Print said: "At present, opens up new possibilities to the world, this new round of the production process, this new space for design."

"Through the 3D printing process, you are not limited in creating the shape of an object .You can create any shape you want."

Compound spares that the Rolls-Royce plans to create initially are brackets and fuel dispensers, jets.
 This is just the beginning - in the future it is planned to print accurately using metallic materials and ceramics.
