These p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>s are used in testing that relies on a laser-based technology known as \u2018p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>icle image velocimetry\u2019 or PIV. One challenge with taking reliable PIV measurements is the reflections of laser light from background surfaces other than the airborne p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>icles, which reduces the image quality resulting in a loss of useful information. 3D Systems developed Accura Composite PIV \u2013 a new reflection mitigating <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/sla-dlp-3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SLA<\/a> material \u2013 which Alpine F1 Team is using to print its wind tunnel model p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>s.

The unique color of Accura Composite PIV provides the possibility to eliminate some of these steps and therefore compress the workflow for efficiency and throughput gains.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve proudly collaborated with 3D Systems for many years,\u201d said Pat Warner, advanced digital manufacturing manager, Alpine F1 Team. \u201cThe deep expertise of their <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/insights\/applications\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">application<\/a> engineers and their industry-leading solutions have been an invaluable p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a> of our innovation team. It\u2019s been exciting to co-develop Accura Composite PIV and see the benefits it\u2019s bringing to our process. We produce nearly 500 p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>s per week for wind tunnel testing. Due to the material\u2019s unique optical characteristics, we are now collecting more reliable data from our PIV system in the wind tunnel\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Accura Composite PIV\u2019s unique color, the material has a high tensile and flex modulus, with a heat deflection temperature of 100\u00b0 C, which makes it ideal to withstand the rigors of wind tunnel testing. This material is formulated for use with 3D Systems\u2019 stereolithography <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D print<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ing<\/a> technology \u2013 including the company\u2019s 3D Sprint software \u2013 that is designed for rapid production of large (up to 1500mm in length), high-resolution p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>s. At the core of 3D Systems\u2019 solutions is the expertise of its Application Innovation Group that is relied upon for engineering expertise to help F1 teams such as Alpine F1 Team refine their <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/automotive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">vehicle<\/a> designs for faster time to \u2013 and on \u2013 the track.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCustomer-centric innovation is a guiding force within 3D Systems,\u201d said Kevin Baughey, segment leader, transportation &amp; motorsports, 3D Systems. \u201cWorking with Alpine F1 Team to develop our newest material is another example of how we\u2019re leveraging our F1 <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/insights\/applications\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">application<\/a> expertise to develop advanced solutions that give our customers a competitive edge.

When used as part of a complete 3D Systems additive manufacturing solution \u2013 comprising Accura Composite PIV, the company\u2019s stereolithography (SLA) technology, software, and advanced application services \u2013 Alpine F1 Team has been able to maximize its wind tunnel investment and improve its understanding of the airflow over the car. 3D Systems confirmed the availability of Accura Composite PIV \u2013 a new material specifically designed to address PIV testing applications used primarily in motorsports wind tunnel testing.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/3d-systems-alpine-f1-team-advance-wind-tunnel-productivity\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/3d-systems-alpine-f1-team-advance-wind-tunnel-productivity\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/3d-systems-alpine-f1-team-advance-wind-tunnel-productivity\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/4328567639278688995.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/4328567639278688995.jpg","width":2560,"height":1440,"caption":"3D Systems &#038; Alpine F1 Team Advance Wind Tunnel Productivity"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/3d-systems-alpine-f1-team-advance-wind-tunnel-productivity\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"3D Systems &#038; Alpine F1 Team Advance Wind Tunnel Productivity"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/#website","url":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/","name":"FacFox News","description":"News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/#organization","name":"FacFox News","url":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/facfox-news-homepg-logo-200px.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/facfox-news-homepg-logo-200px.png","width":200,"height":55,"caption":"FacFox News"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/#\/schema\/person\/7b701aad2d8f434034fcecd2c50a570c","name":"Vera","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/bf3b1e47e1f0ed2367da10e343584d5a4adb2e9675fce2aefb04f0ecf3954386?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/bf3b1e47e1f0ed2367da10e343584d5a4adb2e9675fce2aefb04f0ecf3954386?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/bf3b1e47e1f0ed2367da10e343584d5a4adb2e9675fce2aefb04f0ecf3954386?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Vera"},"url":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/author\/vera\/"}]}},"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/4328567639278688995.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"3D Systems &#038; Alpine F1 Team Advance Wind Tunnel Productivity","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181332","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=181332"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181332\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":181567,"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181332\/revisions\/181567"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/184880"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181332"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=181332"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=181332"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
