January Special Focus Issue: Design for Additive
In this Special Focus Issue of Digital Engineering, learn about the latest advancements in design for additive manufacturing, including new software tools, additive in automotive, custom medical devices, and more.
Sauber Motorsports, a Swiss motorsport engineering company, has picked 3D Systems’ latest polymer 3D printing technologies. Sauber plans to add 10 3D Systems 3D printers—eight SLA 750 Dual and two PSLA 270—to its manufacturing workflow. The combination of these technologies along with 3D Systems’ Accura Composite PIV, Accura Xtreme and Figure 4 ceramic-filled materials will increase Sauber’s production capacity for wind tunnel parts.
3D Systems’ SLA 750 Dual is recognized as a fast Stereolithography (SLA) solution. The two-laser configuration of this printer delivers increased throughput in a smaller footprint, according to 3D Systems. The PSLA 270 is a high-speed, projector-based SLA additive manufacturing solution. Sauber is a Formula 1 team to incorporate the PSLA technology to deliver flexibility to execute quick, time-sensitive changes to wind tunnel parts.
“As a race team, Sauber is driven by its desire to win and we want to work with the latest and most innovative technologies,” says Marco Gehrig, head of mechanical & AM production, Sauber Group. “The benchmarks conducted on the SLA 750 yielded parts with better surface quality and required less post-processing than the current machines in use. Our team is looking forward to using the industry’s most advanced SLA technology available to increase our production speed, quality and flexibility for wind tunnel parts, and accelerating our speed to track.”
"3D Systems has a long-standing partnership with Sauber spanning nearly two decades, and our relationship as well as our technology portfolio have evolved over this time," says Elvis Perez, senior vice president, global ISG sales, 3D Systems. I’m looking forward to continuing our journey with the Sauber team to push the boundaries of what’s possible in motorsports through the power of additive manufacturing.”
