Printing a model jet engine is quite an accomplishment. But it wasn’t enough for [linus3d]. He wanted to redesign it to have a turbojet, an afterburner, and a variable exhaust nozzle. You can see how ...

We love to highlight great engineering student projects at Hackaday. We also love environment-sensing microcontrollers, 3D printing, and jet engines. The X-Plorer 1 by JetX Engineering checks all the ...

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 ...

China has conducted a successful maiden flight of a miniature turbojet engine manufactured entirely with 3D printing, a development that explores new methods for tackling difficulties in aerospace ...

JetX Engineering develops jet engine models from scratch, demonstrating the potential of 3D printing in aerospace education. The team of students from the University of Glasgow brought the first ...

The first time Pratt & Whitney’s GatorWorks attempted to 3D-print a combustor for the miniature TJ-150 jet engine, the results were anything but perfect. “Actually, it was terrible”, says Dave Stagney ...

(Nanowerk News) In additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, a 3D printer deposits material onto a surface or mold, letting it solidify one layer at a time until a 3D object – as simple as a ...

Is it real? Well, yes and no. “While it’s not to scale, this 1.5 inch long model was made entirely from direct metal laser melting and required no assembly,” explains GE in another tweet. Does it work ...
