If you head over to Thingiverse, you can get instructions for a hand-cranked, 3D-printable jet engine, courtesy of GE. Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, and she hopes to get you as enthralled ...

It's my personal experience that the world has become obsessed with 3D printing. If you want to build things, casting, milling and stamping are just as important. But I wouldn't go as far as to say ...

General Electric this week revealed that it has completed a multi-year project to print a working jet engine. The engine, small enough to fit in a backpack, was built by a team of technicians, ...

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. Freelance writer Amanda C. Kooser covers gadgets and tech ...

When it comes to 3D printing parts for aircraft and other heavy machinery, engineers have barely scratched the surface. Using a technique called direct metal laser melting, engineers at GE Aviation ...

Curious about just how far they could take the company’s additive manufacturing technology, engineers at GE Aviation’s Additive Development Center in Cincinnati successfully created a simple jet ...

[amazingdiyprojects] has been working on a 3D printable jet engine. You may remember seeing a 3D printed jet engine grace our front page back in October. That one was beautiful didn’t function. This ...

In specific applications, jet engines are often the most efficient internal combustion engines available. Not just for airplanes, but for anything that needs to run on a wide variety of fuels, operate ...

A team of students have used 3D printing technology to create a model of a steam engine originally designed by James Watt more than 200 years ago. The JetX student society at the University of Glasgow ...

As a tech demonstration, researchers at GE recently built a miniature, backpack-sized jet engine that they made entirely from 3D-printed parts. And not just for looks, either. They were able to fire ...

3D printing is coming of age in numerous ways. On a large scale, MIT researchers built a 50-foot-wide, 12-foot tall igloo in just 13 hours. They've also debuted the first completely 3D-printed rocket ...
