3D printing hasn’t been viable up to now as a technology for mass production. It’s still in the early stages of development and different processes are still being formulated.
In the high-octane world of Formula 1, where speed, weight reduction, and rapid development cycles are crucial, it's no surprise that 3D printing has become an indispensable ally.
The ASA glass transition temperature is around 100°C. This makes it slightly easier to print than ABS, while it is also better for outdoor applications due to its good UV resistance.
Being first to finish is always top of the agenda, especially when getting your product to market. Those extra moments with less competition could make or break a brand and/or its product.
