Producing more efficient parts for the motorsport industry
The motor racing industry is one of the most high-profile industries in the world – constantly at the cutting-edge of technology development and deployment. Metal AM can offer huge advantages on and off the track in developing new parts that are stronger and lighter, and can be delivered on demand.
Consumer automotive development is a different beast, particularly in terms of production volumes, but R&D for motorsport applications can be transitioned to the consumer automotive sector for the right applications with the right materials.
