BAC launched the next generation of its world-renowned Mono single-seater at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in July 2019. BAC partnered with DSM to co-develop 3D printing applications used in the manufacturing of the Mono, to create a cutting-edge, more organic and lighter design.
3D printing offered BAC significant advantages that included freedom to produce prototype parts with sinuous, organic designs, and considerable weight savings that could not be achieved with traditional methods of manufacturing.

McLaren Racing - Using 3D printing to get the edge - on and off the track
The ‘formula’ behind Formula One is a series of complex rules and regulations that must be adhered to by the competing drivers and teams. The rules frame a technological window within which each team must produce the fastest car,
all within a maximum permissible budget.
These regulations create a fiercely competitive landscape where fractions of a gram here, a micron or two there, and the overarching speed of development separate podium finishers from the ‘also rans’.

Ogle Models - Building the world's first portable food testing device prototype
Environmental design house Koringa Systems Limited approached Ogle to help develop a prototype for a hand-held chemical and contaminant analysis tool called the Agrichem Residue Tester. The tool was designed to be used in the agricultural sector, to test for possible contaminants in food or hard surfaces, from seed to final harvest, and identify chemicals, pesticides, herbicides and fungicides.
Koringa needed to present a realistic prototype of the tool at exhibitions to generate business and investment.

One3D - 3D printing lens prototypes for the automative industry
3D printed lens prototypes are the latest innovation in automotive lighting system applications. One3D uses them for companies including HELLA, Varroc and MSV Elektronika rail vehicle parts. The companies use the lenses as a visual aid to confirm designs before going into large-scale production.
Companies are moving away from the high lead times and production costs of PMMA and turning to 3D printing to produce new lens design prototypes for future development and innovation concept products.

Paragon - Increasing part quality and reducing production time
Located in Darlington, County Durham, Paragon Rapid Technologies Limited provides high-level support throughout the product development cycle.
With a wide range of customers in many industries, Paragon must adapt to the often-meticulous demands that are required as well as the ever-changing nature of markets.
The team is often commissioned to produce prototypes, jigs & fixtures, pattern masters and even end-use models that are needed quickly, making traditional production/manufacturing less viable.

Gulf Wind Technology - Advancing wind energy with the help of 3D printing
According to the US Energy Information Administration, a standard wind turbine installed in 2020 generates enough electricity in 46 minutes to power an average US household for a month. However, this type of energy generation would not be possible without the rotors of the wind turbine, which use wind power thanks to the rotor blades or air guide profiles, and Gulf Wind Technology produces these parts. But the design of the rotor blades has been stretching the company's already tight development schedule to the limit. Using conventional manufacturing processes, the production of wind tunnel models is time-consuming. This hinders rapid iteration of the designs.
