Drastically reduced lead time, faster iterations

Faster, lighter – and always safe: these are the requirements of motor sports development. For decades, EOS has been working with customers to exploit new potential using industrial 3D printing.

 

The innovation cycles are extremely short, and the competitive pressure is high, just like the stresses on the parts themselves.

 

Besides precisely defined functional properties, low weight and high strength count the most. There are similar requirements on the choice of manufacturing technology: it needs to allow innovative and often unusual designs. It must allow parts and their variants to be manufactured quickly, with minimal effort and cost. 

Lightweight Design and Topology Optimization of a Brake Pedal

EOS Solutions for the Formula 1 Team Front Wing Design at Williams Martini Racing

Williams Martini Racing was looking for a simple, fast and cost-efficient solution to build design prototypes for the front wing of their Formula 1 race car. Additive manufacturing by EOS offered the perfect complement to their development and manufacturing processes. With the EOSINT P 760, the team succeeded in building various iterations, as well as lower costs thanks to reduced production times. 

EOS has the experience and professionalism that our employees display everyday at work. We’re not just a racing team, we’re also an engineering company. All of our products and race cars are based on technically advanced decisions. The same is true at EOS.
