"The Aerospace Industry" is a perfect example of the successful application of #additivemanufacturing. As aerospace products and components go through hard approval and certification processes, the development and production costs are generally quite high. One example of the early adoption of AM is the LEAP jet engine, produced by CFM International (CFM) a joint venture between GE and Safran. This jet turbine is in use at countless aircraft worldwide, civilian as well as military.
