General Electric to Open Massive 3D Printing Facility in India

[Brian_Krassenstein]

Seems like 3D printing is really taking off from a manufacturer's standpoint. Today General Electric announced that they will be opening a $200 million facility in the state of Maharashtra, India.

The facility will cater to a variety of different industries, centering around engine, Jet, and turbine parts. The grand opening will take place sometime later this year, creating numerous jobs for the area. We have been hearing that additive manufacturing as well as robotics would bring jobs back onshore to the United States. Looks like it could go either way. Would love to hear your opinions on this move made by GE.

That would be a great news for Indian Manufacturing sector. Thanks for the update.

Seems like they're missing the point of "local manufacturing". As always, profit rules...

Couldn't agree more @mkapras.
