Yesterday, GE’s $1.4 billion plan to acquire Swedish Arcam and SLM Solutions in Germany set off a “big shock” in the 3D printing industry. What is the reason behind this acquisition? What impact will it have on the 3D printing industry and on GE itself? What do people in the industry think? (PS: Attached to domestic and foreign interviews and GE's acquisition analysis report)

1. Speaking from GE's mass-produced 3D printing fuel nozzles in recent years

GE's aviation division, the world's largest jet engine supplier, has long used 3D printing technology to mass produce fuel nozzles for jet engines. The large fuel nozzle orders from Aerospace Airlines have become GE's strong "internal demand" backing, which has also accelerated GE's march into 3D printing.

GE headquarters also said that the technology will be used to manufacture more than 100,000 fuel nozzles and be assembled on the aviation group's new generation aircraft engine CFM Leap. Leap is a new generation of aircraft engines developed by GE, which is expected to achieve mass production and air services in 2016. The new Airbus A320 NEO, Boeing 737 MAX and China-made C919 passenger aircraft will also use the Leap engine.

2. How will GE's move impact the 3D printing industry?

First, this move made GE one of the largest suppliers in the 3D printing industry among the largest users in the 3D printing industry.

Secondly, the impact on the stock price of 3D printing companies, especially metal 3D printing companies: In addition to the two metal 3D printing companies directly related to the news, the stocks of 3D printing in the US stock market also showed a collective increase: Stratasys (SSYS ) rose 3.7%, 3D Systems (DDD) rose 5.5%, and Voxeljet (VJET) rose 4.6%.
