More than a century ago, Ford Motor Company's iconic Model T made automobiles affordable to the masses with assembly line production and efficient manufacturing. That legacy has continued, with ground-breaking research to design and develop the future of mobility and manufacturing.
The HTW team enjoys comparative increase in horsepower of around 10% versus traditional manufacturing methods: "3D printing of complex parts is fastest and the preferred way of manufacturing airbox", says the team engineer.
"This is where Dassault Systèmes' 3DEXPERIENCE platform and the industry solution experiences portfolio can play a pivotal role, by providing one unified, digital platform with specialized applications to help companies minimize risks and costs, automate knowledge, facilitate changes and optimize overall performance."

Altair, a company offering technology and services for business and engineering innovation, has twenty years of experience in optimizing strength in structure and design. In the past, their users redesigned optimized models in CAD and sent them for conventional manufacturing. Nowadays, as 3D Printing is embraced more and more to complement conventional production techniques, designers and engineers are discovering its significant benefits such as freedom of design and shorter time-to-market.
In more than a 100 years of automobile history, only a handful of cars hit the books as iconic models. One such model is the Mercedes 300 SL. Today, the original spirit of a 55-year-old beauty was brought back to life with 3D-printed spare parts.
MecklerMedia Corporation (OTCQX: MECK) announced the launch of the 3D Print Vehicle Zone at Inside 3D Printing Conference and Expo, taking place October 20-22, 2015 at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, California.

Porsche Asia Pacific joins forces with the importers in the region to raise funds for SportCares, a foundation that passionately works to improve the lives of underprivileged children, at-risk youth, needy seniors and members of community with disabilities. A full-sized replica of the Porsche 919 Hybrid will be on sale to raise funds the chosen charity. Only 13 such 1:1 scale replicas exist worldwide and the car on sale will be one of the examples to be privately-owned. Such replicas or mock-ups as they are otherwise known, serve as important development prototypes that car manufacturers use for studies. Very rarely are these models allowed to leave the factory yet alone be available for sale.
