How Divergent Blade Became Czinger 21C, a Hypercar Built without Tools

In the beginning, it was the Blade, a concept hypercar featuring the first fully 3D printed frame and a number of other 3D printed parts. That early concept was used by the startup Divergent 3D to raise funds and acquire multiple production metal 3D printers from SLM Solutions; today it has evolved into the Czinger 21C a finished hypercar, the first such vehicle ever built using no tools and featuring an unprecedented number of fully 3D printed parts.

3D Printed Snowboard Bindings Pass Stress Test on the Slopes

3D Printed Snowboard Bindings Pass Stress Test on the Slopes

Early last year the Swiss brand NOW 3D printed by SLS a set of generatively designed bindings that were put through a simulated testing environment (and passed). A new collaboration between Stratasys and Slicelab + Fequalsf (Aaron Porterfield), just produced a new set of 3D printed snowboard bindings that were produced using the Stratasys Origin One high-speed photopolymerization 3D printer using the Loctite 3172 material. The printed bindings were functionally tested with a weekend of boarding at Breckenridge, Colorado and performed perfectly.
