I just love the idea that in a few years time we'll just print ourselves a new turbo

I thought I understood how 3d printers worked. But now I don't. How do you print titanium?!

Hmm interesting concept...

Not really a concept...its a working turbo on a production engine! Serious pioneering stuff

Sprinkle titanium on a surface, point laser at bits you want as one solid piece, allow to melt into pool, shake off, repeat... Additive manufacturing

So it basically melts the particles and solidifies in the desired shape. I always thought it was melted plastic that was being printed with the plastics coming out and solidified in the shape.
RE: Stuff a GTB....I want this turbo... - toseland - 01-07-2014
this technically isnt "printing"... this is 3d forming..
printing requires the substrate to be supplied by a third party object (either ink from a roller, or plastic from a printing head etc)
needless to say there are various ways this can be acheived, either by piping the substrate onto the "thing" layer by layer, or melting together metal dust (as above) that is contained in whatever container it is in.

At the end of the day, it's the same idea, executed in different ways.
It's a way of being able to form incredibly complex shapes with incredible ease in comparison to casting.
