GE already has over 300 3-D printers, but I don't have any idea how many are for plastic vs. the additive machining (metal) process:

One might infer from the heading "GE WORKS / BUILDING / ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING" that they're all AM machines but who knows?
If they are, wouldn't it be cool if Morris and company decided to install PrintRite3d® on all of 'em? Don't think that's probable, but maybe on the more sophisticated ones from EOM and the like.

If not, then I can wait until GE buys the first run of AM machines from Additive Industries, each arriving with Sigma Labs SW inside and the PrintRite3D® Sensorpak­™ preinstalled. IMO (yeah I'm doing the IMO thing too) GE knows full well what a game changer the MetalFAB1® is going to be and can afford to wait a bit longer before making a commitment to buying machines to put into their AM facilities around the globe.
GE and Additive Industries aren't exactly strangers:

and it's hard to believe that GE production guys wouldn't want to go with a machine with multiple lasers, automated plate handling, etc. that such a device offers. I realize it's not even available yet, but if Additive Industries can deliver on time and it performs as advertised--what's not to like?
