HP MJF 3D printing technology in the automotive industry application

2023-10-26

Industrial-grade 3D printing has a wide range of applications in the automotive industry. From the fixture used in automotive assembly to the production and use of automotive parts, HP MJF 3D printing equipment hp4200 attracts more and more automotive companies to explore and develop with its rapid prototyping and excellent physical properties of printed parts.

BMW has long used the hp4200 to MJF 3D printed auto parts for users. Under the MINI Yours Customized program, consumers will be able to design their own specific accessories, including the dashboard, door frames, headlights and more. After submitting a personalized design plan online, users can own a unique BMW MINI for a specified period of time.

Dr.Jens Ertel, director of the BMW Group Additive Manufacturing Center, revealed that BMW is significantly increasing the number of 3D printed parts for cars, and has conducted targeted research on additive manufacturing technology and production methods. The latest application is the 3D printing of the window rail for the BMW i8 Roadster. Thanks to the efficient iteration of 3D printing, the new window rail was developed in just five days and was soon put into mass production at BMW's plant in Leipzig. The new window guide rail is produced using hp4200 printer MJF printing technology.

With HP MultiJet Fusion technology, 100 rails can be produced every 24 hours and can be used directly for automotive assembly.

In the field of automobile production and manufacturing, the promotion and popularization of 3D printing technology has provided more automobile companies with ways to achieve technological innovation and cost savings. Lori Technology will also deepen cooperation with many domestic and foreign car companies, and develop broader applications in the production of auto parts, auto assembly, and auto personalized modification.
