3D Printing of GRX-810, fused metal 3D printing process for high-temperature applications, timelapse

[ video & text : NASA Glenn Research center ]
This time-lapse shows a laser 3D printing process that fused metals together, layer-by-layer, to create the new alloy GRX-810. This alloy is an oxide dispersion strengthened alloy, which is great for building aerospace parts for high-temperature applications because they can withstand harsher conditions before reaching their breaking points.
