Once a design is set, different bits of the manufacturing process are tried out on computer: a virtual pipe-bending machine, for instance, makes sure that the fuel lines which snake their way through the airframe can be created without wrapping themselves around the machine and bringing it to a halt.
The lightest ultrastrong automotive materials, carbon-fiber composites, looked too costly for cars until a Rocky Mountain Institute spinoff commercialized an automated manufacturing process that makes complex composite parts in less than a minute.
One of the major benefits of this development is that it only adds a single step to the manufacturing process, meaning that this technique can be adapted to current cells rather rapidly.
The various pieces would then be lined up and laminated together to form a working print head, a process which required HP to have two different manufacturing lines and product designs for low-end and high-end print heads.
