ODK CAT forced 3D printer to change material during printing
The center already uses additive technologies in PD-8, PD-14, and PD-35, and now it has demonstrated a way to combine different plastic properties in one part
PD-8
Engine more complex than aircraft: pilot revealed PD-14 development timeline
Oleg Smirnov explained why it's not enough to just assemble the aircraft quickly
PD-8 received PD-14 technology, not a repeat of SaM146
The new engine for SJ-100 inherited solid wide-chord titanium, not capricious French patterns
UEC reveals why PD-8 and PD-14 are assembled vertically: it's about rotor precision
During horizontal assembly, long rotating elements experience stress from their own weight
PD-8 did not repeat the SaM146 problem: changes are hidden in the turbine
The Russian engine received new gas dynamics for rapid thrust increase
PD-14 will need 8 years to reach Pratt & Whitney's level
Yury Sytnik: "An engine needs to be nurtured for 5-10 years until it matches foreign counterparts"
PD-8 and PD-14 engines put on assembly line with VK-2500 and TV7-117 with 230 machines
New Moscow site of ODK will produce parts for five families of aircraft engines at once
