What are the applications of 3D printing technology in the automotive field?
In the design of automobile parts, due to the rapid prototyping characteristics of 3D printing, R&D personnel can use 3D printing technology to make conceptual models through computers within hours or days, and then directly convert 3D design drawings into objects, thus reducing the mold opening process in the development of complex parts, with higher accuracy, making the design and manufacturing cost of vehicles low, the research and development cycle short and the production efficiency higher.

Diversified material selection, different mechanical properties and accurate functional prototype enable designers to correct mistakes at any time in the early stage, improve the design and avoid corresponding mistakes as soon as possible. Through error avoidance and richer functional experiments realized by 3D printing, the production efficiency of parts at the design level is accelerated, and the labor and material costs consumed by errors in R&D and design are saved.

However, there are many models to choose from in the market, but after all, the same model is a mass production model produced by a mold, and you will never be unique. With the continuous maturity of 3D printing technology, it is believed that in the future, it will be possible to realize the universal application of vehicle customization based on 3D printing technology. Although the vehicle customization based on 3D printing is still far away, some companies are committed to providing consumers with the opportunity to design their own 3D printed cars.

In lithium-ion batteries, porous electrodes can bring stronger storage capacity. This is because this structure allows a large number of lithium ions to enter the electrode, which can achieve higher electrode utilization rate and bring higher storage capacity. In ordinary batteries, 30% to 50% of the electrodes are not used. We overcame this problem through 3D printing technology. The microelectrode structure made by 3D printing can make lithium ion transport in the electrode more effectively, which will also improve the charging speed of the battery. The micro-metal structure used as the electrode of lithium ion battery can increase the specific capacity by 4 times and the area capacity by 2 times compared with the traditional solid battery.
