Just read a bit in a car mag which reports that the next Bugatti Chiron titanium brake calipers will be made by 3D printing. Saves a couple of kg, apparently, but each one takes 45 hrs to make! Presumably the machine doesn’t need tea / comfort breaks or only work an 8 hour shift......

Mike, just have a look to the said machine location. If the answer is France, they will have to cope with strike, workers forgetting to come at work, titanium missing, worn out watch indicating wrong time of the day or night and stuff! Well ya no those people, dont you?

I'll ask the people at Rolls Royce (not the Goodwood BMW people) whether they use such a technique when I go to the AGM later in the year. |

Why are refurbished French highways so smooth surfaced and level whilst British roads are not? |

If they're going to make turbine fan blades by 3D printing, I don't want to know about it

However they do find it useful for creating a model of a CAD design that people can look at, handle, and visualise to spot potential problems with the product or find ways to address manufacturing challenges. I would have thought metals would more likely be sintered but I guess some might refer to that as 3D printing these days. |

Luton suburbs may be I should ask Bob!
French highways you have to pay for, the private companies running them are more than rich but the toll prices are still increasing. And the recovery is a kind of monopoly and the restaurants dont "serve" french cuisine image though! |

The roads in Spain are amazing, even ones going to most little villages up the mountains are like a billiard table complete with Armco, all EEC money of course !!!!
Well I watched the start and finish of most F1 races and now that "grid girls" are no more I'll have to make do with the finish |
