As part of that alliance, Stratasys will supply McLaren Racing with its latest fused deposition modeling (FDM) and PolyJet-based 3-D printing solutions and cutting-edge materials for visual and functional prototyping, production tooling including composite tooling, and customized production parts. Stratasys says this will increase performance and productivity in design and manufacturing operations.
“We’re delighted to be working with such a restless, visionary and ambitious partner,” said Stratasys CEO Ilan Levin. “McLaren Racing will be leveraging our nearly 30 years of 3D printing and additive manufacturing experience to stay at the forefront of motorsport technological development. Stratasys will also gain invaluable feedback and insights from working with ultra-high performance automotive applications, which we can then apply to our mainstream automotive and aerospace customers. Equally, McLaren Racing will benefit from the superior productivity, engineering precision and wide gamut of materials that come with our 3D printing solutions.”
