What is amazing to me is the ~10 axis motion between the 2 bots...who programmed that for a shape critical, balanced Turbine blade! Holy Kadoodle!

I've seen this before too and it is an amazing tech...removing the necessity of a vacuum chamber and sputtering equipment of days gone by. Even with the robots this probably costs the same as the original in today's duckets and so much more precise. If memory serves me right I think RR developed the tech back when. Full production additive now.
