More Car Makers to Use 3D Printing in Future?
Researchers at Tohoku University's Institute for Materials Research have made a breakthrough in a multi-material 3D printing. They have demonstrated the process for creating a lightweight yet durable automobile part using both steel and aluminium. Metal 3D printing involves building objects by depositing metals layer by layer, using heat to bind them. The process can produce unique, highly customisable shapes in environmentally sound fashion. Using 3D printing ‘multi-material structures’ are fashioned using different materials for optimal performance of a component. Steel car parts may be lightweighted...
