Xi’an West Aviation Intelligence is scaling its proprietary Forge-Printing technology to produce high-integrity turbofan engine components, including turbine casings and blisks. By integrating Directed Energy Deposition with synchronous micro-forging, the process achieves forged-level mechanical properties while reducing material waste by over 70%. This technical leap overcomes traditional AM porosity and grain issues, cutting production cycles by 60% compared to conventional forging. This hybrid approach marks a systemic shift toward localized, high-integrity aerospace manufacturing. #AdditiveManufacturing #Aerospace #3DPrinting #Aviation #TechInnovation #Engineering
