Discover and Deliver Energy Systems That Transform Automotive Propulsion

Today’s sustainable automotive systems require innovative and unique solutions to not only remove energy from power systems but also find ways to utilize this energy more effectively to increase efficiency and reduce waste.

Our metal additive manufacturing solutions provide teams with the design freedom, material performance, component quality, and manufacturing flexibility needed to advance the science of sustainable mobility. We enable engineers to discover, refine, and deliver innovations to market faster, putting more energy into the wheels and not in the environment.

Solve Your Energy and Fluid Management Challenges

  • Automotive Industrial High Pressure Gas Gauges

  • Design Robustness in Extreme Environments

    New propulsion and drivetrain systems often involve novel designs and fluids in managing thermal energy and fluid dynamics, which means that you must utilize robust materials and physical designs to ensure consistent system performance over time. Our metal additive solutions provide the design freedom required to optimize physical performance and manage energy more efficiently in these new systems.
  • 3D Systems DMP Laserform 316L Lamellar heat Exchanger

  • Manufacturing Complex Geometry

    Our metal 3D printing allows engineers to design what was previously impossible to manufacture. These new energy management systems will require a high level of design freedom including thin walls and complex geometries to capture and manage energy more efficiently. Refined by years of industry experience, our solutions deliver the highest levels of design freedom across the entire manufacturing and assembly process—from initial geometry to design and post-processing—to ensure the quality and performance of intricate channels and surfaces.
  • Automotive Car Engine with Emphasized Exhaust System

  • Structural Performance in Harsh Environments

    New powertrain and drivetrain systems face the same environmental, durability, and robustness challenges, including high temperatures, temperature cycling, chemical exposure, and high-energy vibrations, as previous vehicle systems. A broad range of metal alloys and reproducible, high-quality parts without porosity can give you confidence in your systems’ performance under the harshest conditions and environments.

  • Application Innovation Group

    Our team can help you solve your most difficult design and production challenges with additive manufacturing solutions. Together we’ll identify your needs, working with you to optimize your designs, prototype, validate and define a manufacturing flow.
