Application of 3D printing in aviation field
Application of 3D printing in aviation field The 3D printing process has developed rapidly so far, and it has always been one of the processes widely used in the manufacturing industry. Nowadays, more and more industries benefit from 3D printing technology. Through the simplification of complex parts, more and more customers choose to use it. The cost of this process, especially the 3D printing process nowadays, is getting lower and lower as the technology matures, which is even more beneficial in the aviation field. 1. 3D printing XB-1 supersonic aircraft titanium alloy parts XB-1 is a supersonic aircraft launched at the end of last year, flying extremely fast. Moreover, there are not many supersonic commercial aircrafts on the market at present. This type of aircraft uses a large number of 3D printed parts. The entire fuselage uses a total of more than 20 3D printed titanium alloy parts, which are used in the aircraft's engine and temperature control system. 2. Prov...
