Well, it's mid November and they say they will begin production in December/January timeframe, and they have not ordered any at this point. Seems clear to me, but I'm sure the "true believers" will have their own spin to put on it. Believe whatever makes you comfortable.

good question, I'd like to hear/see answer to that question myself.. Z

I find this interesting.

"Over the past year, the Auburn plant has been installing and qualifying additive manufacturing capability, including more than a dozen laser melting machines. Fuel nozzles will be the first components to be built using additive processes for the best-selling LEAP engine by CFM International. It marks the first time such a complex component will be manufactured using additive technology"

and then this from Donald Godfrey of Honeywell.

The logic is based on the premise that when a good part is produced in the 3D printer, the PrintRite3D® INSPECT TM generates an electronic signature of each slice of the part. That signature becomes a slice by slice comparison to an already established baseline for what a quality part would look like when looking at the part from an electronic perspective. It should be noted that this electronic signature is of little to no value unless it is correlated to mechanical and metallurgical property data. This means the user must produce numerous test specimens to generate this property data AND correlate that property data back to the electronic signature data. The goal of this software is to have an electronic signature (objective evidence of compliance) of the mechanical properties of the part by slice
