That last video looks like a DMG machine with a nutating head and pallet changer, thats some expesive milling tight there! I work with all sorts of 5 axis machine tools. I work for a company that makes touch probes for machine tools and my job is developing and testing pc software for probing. Like CAM for touch probes I guess!!
If this stuff tickles your pickle you should go to MACH show at the NEC in just over a weeks time!!!

Additive manufacturing, also called 3D printing, is a process used to create three-dimensional parts from a digital file. It usually involves building up, or solidifying, thin layers of material to create complete parts. The technology is able to produce complex shapes which cannot be produced by 'traditional' techniques such as casting, forging and machining.
