Design News - Engineering Materials - Video: Biggest 3D Manufacturing Machine Builds Jet Fighter Wing Boxes
Very similar to the 3D printers out there but this prints in metals like titanium. Other than the ability to change design with a mouse click I'm not 100% sure why this is that much better than some low volume casting techniques but theres no limit to parts size so that's cool too. Not totally 'new' either but this machine is very large so it can make real parts for real airplanes.
