Haven't seen that. Awesome!! Thanks.
“So one of those challenges we have is the quality side of things. so I hope everybody knows that no engine manufacturer, I don’t care if it’s Rolls, Pratt, GE, Honeywell, doesn't matter, no aircraft manufacturer, no air framer, and frankly many other OEM’s for products are not going to put something into their product line unless they feel 100% sure that the quality and the reliability of those components will survive the environments in which they are going into. So this becomes a very important and very big issue for us is what we call our in process quality assurance. So today’s equipment and today’s technology OEM’s are pushing for this. They want to have melt pool monitoring, they want to know what the atmosphere is, and all those things we do need. But what do you do with these gigabytes of data, how do you leverage and use that so that when you produce a component anywhere on that platform you know exactly what you have coming out the other end? (And by the way I would say there are a number of service providers and people who have been involved in the last 10 years that are actively working with universities, or just doing the work themselves. So I think we’re going to come to a point soon where we have some very interesting solutions. GE for instance recently signed a JTDA with Sigma labs. They are one of the players involved in monitoring what’s going on inside the equipment and being able to tell if you’re building a whole batch of these parts, if you have a problem in any one of those. So this doesn't “take away” the need to post inspect, but it’s something that we have to get into the machines themselves.” Greg Morris, GE Aviation.
