Israel and Aerospace Consortium Look into 3D printing With Titanium

[Brian_Krassenstein]

Avi Hasson serves as the Chief Scientist for the Israeli Ministry of Economy research and technological development committee, and he also leads a Magnet Committee which provides grants for industrial concerns which pair up with academic partners on technology projects. Hasson says the committee will be driven by a dozen business clusters and take advantage of a budget of nearly $51 million to examine methods of building titanium parts for aerospace applications. One of the industry leaders of the group, Elbit Systems, is an international high-tech company that develops and supplies a range of airborne, land, and naval systems for defense, homeland security, and commercial aviation applications.

I am interested in any aerospace applications for this technology. I am an aerospace parts inspector expecting this technology to explode shortly.
