What do you want to make today?
“It's always exciting working on concept vehicles. When many of our automotive clients push the boundaries of innovation, we in turn have to push the boundaries of our processes, techniques and technologies. This means investing significantly in R&D to come up with a solution“
Additive Manufacturing Applications
Outstanding models with outstanding finishes.
Thermoplastic printing for prototypes, functionality testing and durable parts.
Extra strong, carbon-based filament printing for tooling and functional parts.
Eat. Sleep. Make. Repeat. The 3D manufacturing solution for small parts.
SLA in the Automotive Sector
Large print areas enable automotive design engineers to produce high detail, robust, superbly finished, finely detailed scale models.
From fins to wing mirrors; from consoles to tail lights, SLA offers the bed size, water resistance, transparency where required, and fine detailing for large and small components.
SLA is the perfect solution to low cost tooling production, especially when low numbers of finely detailed parts are required.
Aesthetic prototypes such as consoles, lenses, grips, jigs and fixtures, tooling, panels.
SLS in the Automotive Sector
Check form and fit for under bonnet applications requiring high temperatures and high levels of strength and durability. SLS enables the engineer to design parts with variable wall thicknesses to increase strength to weight ratios.
SLS can help with low cost tooling production, especially when low numbers of finely detailed parts are required; creation of jigs and fixtures for pre-production parts.
Heat resistant functional parts; ducting and bellows; complex interlocking parts in very low volumes.
FFF in the Automotive Sector
Check form and fit for cockpit and under bonnet applications requiring high levels of strength and durability.
FFF, reinforced with Kevlar, carbon or Fiberglass, produces strong, lightweight, end-use parts with considerable costs and time savings.
Fixtures, cradles, and prototypes, which need to be stiff and strong, and durable; one-off functional parts such as electronics housings, gear paddles and handles.
DLS in the Automotive Sector
Cut production costs with parts on demand
We know that if you are to win that race to market, you also need to be able to create high-strength production parts in a tight time frame. Or, you’ll need to flex your supply chain with end-use parts on demand. They’ll comprise complex geometries yet need to be tough enough to endure the rigors of everyday use, high-speed racing or off-roading.
We can help you deliver on value and on economies of scale. Our revolutionary additive manufacturing technology, Digital Light Synthesis™ opens up exciting production and customisation opportunities. It produces parts with all the qualities of injection moulded plastics without the tooling costs. It offers an array of specially formulated materials, from rigid, fire-resistant polyurethanes to ultra-impact absorbent elastomers.
Print end-use parts with consistent isotropic and mechanical properties. Multiple parts provide scale economics.
Air and fluid routing, electronics housing, speaker grills, surface textures, dashboard trim, impact absorption areas (seats and paneling), dampers, brackets and mounts, buttons, badges and trim.
