Ngenkathi ukuphrinta kwe-3D kusengaba phakathi kokuba nenkinga yobunikazi emhlabeni wokukhiqiza ngobuningi (yize kusanda kwenzeka Ukubambisana kwe-Adidas neCarbon kubukeka kuthembisa), akukho ukushoda kwezicelo zezingxenye ezenziwe ngokwezifiso embonini yezindiza.
Yize abakhiqizi bezindiza bebesebenzisa izindlela ezahlukahlukene zokukhiqiza okwenziwe ngezinhloso ezahlukahlukene amashumi eminyaka, iBoeing kulindeleke ukuthi iqale ukusebenzisa izingxenye ezenziwe nge-titanium ezenziwe izitifiketi ze-FAA ezindizeni zazo eziphelile, ngokusho Imibiko yeReuters. Ukonga ezindlekweni zokukhiqiza kulinganiselwa ukonga inkampani ezinze eSeattle okungenani ama- $ 3 million ngejet eyenziwe - kuqala ngendiza yayo yezindiza engu-787 Dreamliner.
I-Titanium alloy, eqinile futhi engasindi, ingabiza imali ephindwe kasikhombisa kune-aluminium futhi izindleko zempahla ye-titanium alloy iyodwa zibala cishe ama- $ 17 million kwezi- $ 265 million ezibiza ukukhiqiza i-Dreamliner. Le nkampani incike ku-titanium alloy ku-Dreamliner ikakhulukazi ngenxa ye-carbon-fiber fuselage namaphiko ayo.
Inkampani ihlela ukuqala ukukhiqiza izingxenye eziphrintiwe ze-3D — ezizonikezela ngama-Dreamliners ayi-144 azokhiqizwa ngonyaka ozayo - kwabayisishiyagalolunye INorsk Titanium amaphrinta wezimboni we-3D ngasekupheleni kuka-2017.
