2015년, 미래를 만드는 GE의 11가지 기술
GE글로벌리서치는 GE의 혁신을 이끄는 원동력이다. 수천의 특허를 보유하고 있으며 여러 명의 노벨상 수상자를 배출해냈다. 오늘날 이 연구소는 브라질, 중국, 독일, 인도에 소재하며 3,000여 명의 과학자들에게 연구의 터전이 되고 있다. 이곳에서 진행되고 있는, 앞으로의 세상을 바꾸게 될 11가지 연구를 살펴보도록 하자.

Earlier this month, @gerenewableenergy got one step closer to completing the world’s largest wind turbine when the first Haliade-X 12 MW blade departed the @lmwindpower factory in Cherbourg, France. The massive 107m blade is headed for ORE Catapult in Blyth, UK, where it will undergo meticulous testing procedures to ensure the blade can withstand the extreme conditions it may face once installed offshore. #HaliadeX #greenenergy #renewableenergy #windenergy #engineering
Hello everyone, I’m Camilo Sampayo, a senior engineer in repair development at @ge__power . I also happen to be a pretty avid tennis player. Over the last few days, you’ve seen how we design, assemble and test our HA gas turbines. I’m taking over all the social channels to show you how we do routine maintenance on parts from our gas turbines. One of the more common repairs we make is on the tip of a turbine blade. Today, you’ll see the process of how we get this part ready again for field service. Stay tuned! #engineer #repairing #gasturbine #partrepairs #gepower
Barrie Sumerel here, cattle rancher and assembly operator at @ge__power . Today I’m taking over the social channels to show you the second step in our HA gas turbine building process: assembly. A lot of hands and hard work go into assembling these turbines, so stay tuned to check it out. #engineering #welder #manufacturing #gasturbine #GE
Hi! Clay Griffis here, travel photographer, animal lover, and advanced manufacturing #engineer at @ge__power in Greenville, South Carolina. Today, I’m taking over the page to give you a behind-the-scenes look at the first step in building our HA gas turbines: design. I’ll be showing you how my team and I are using additive manufacturing to design the HA gas turbine parts to be stronger and more efficient, so stay tuned! #engineering #additivemanufacturing #3Dprinting
Hi! I’m Amanda Fisher, former drag car racer and current lead test engineer at the @ge__power facility in Greenville, South Carolina. Today, I’m taking over all of the social channels to give you a behind-the-scenes look at how we test our HA gas turbines. We use all sorts of specially-designed technology and software to ensure our turbines are as strong and efficient as possible before sending them out to be installed. So stay tuned to see the exciting work we’re doing and meet the people who make it all happen! #engineering #testing #gasturbines #GE
