Loving this from the article

One of the challenges of 3D printing a metal part for an injector on a rocket is there isn't currently precedence for this process in this application. At the forefront of the project has been the evaluation of metal additive manufacturing consistency and repeatability from one completed part to the next compared to conventional manufacturing. Controlling repeatability falls to the hands of the 3D printing service provider.



We know that NASA is very well aware of Sigma Labs solution based on this Nondestructive Evaluation of Additive Manufacturing State-of-the Discipline
Report report printed Dec 2014.

I wonder if Printrite3D was consulted to guarantee the consistency and repeatability :)
