It’s effectively a military fablab, comprised of 3D Printers, CNC mills, laser cutters, water cutters packed into a 20 ft shipping container — and I’m sure some top notch scientists and engineers. And there’s an interesting video! It’s unclear if the intention is to provide a...

Airbus Working on Huge 3D Printer To Print Planes →

Most 3D printers available today are no larger than your average dining table — but Schafer aims first to not only print the smaller components of an aircraft, but by 2050, to print the plane as a whole. Airbus’ parent company EADS has researched the process Schafer proposes to use, known as additive layer manufacturing, since it may be cheaper and lighter than traditional methods used in...
