"For the first time, the engine, called LEAP, flew with 19 fuel nozzles 3D-printed by a computer-guided laser from layers of metal powder"
“We designed these nozzles to efficiently feed fuel into the jet engine, but they are also a work of art,” says Greg Morris, a 3D-printing pioneer who leads additive manufacturing research at GE Aviation. (GE Aviation acquired his company, Morris Technologies, in 2012.) “Methods like 3D printing give designers new freedoms and unleash their imagination. You couldn’t make this nozzle any other way.”

"We want to maximize its use across all of GE’s businesses."
