Space: the final frontier! Researchers at @ORNL #3Dprinted a lunar rover wheel using a NASA design. This wheel won't go to the 🌙, but NASA will use it to test the technology for future #space applications. https://t.co/CTvgQi9DYm #YearInReview @eeregov

[ORNL Energy Science @ORNLEnergy]

.@ORNL researchers at the #ORNLMDF 3D-printed a large rotating steam turbine blade like those used in power plants. In partnership with @SiemensUSA, they showed #additivemanufacturing can solve #supplychain obstacles for heavy components. https://t.co/bZiyd4nVAa

[ORNL Energy Science @ORNLEnergy]

.@ORNL research expands possibilities of #composites: Increased use of #additivemanufacturing, or AM, is creating demand for faster #manufacturing rates and stronger, lighter and more resilient composites than before. https://t.co/G8yYIhsedu

[ORNL Energy Science @ORNLEnergy]

Researchers at @ORNL are taking #additivemanufacturing to the final frontier by #3Dprinting a wheel for a @NASA lunar rover. The wheel won't go to the moon, but NASA will test the technology for future #spaceapplications. #ManufacturingMonth https://t.co/CTvgQi9DYm
