Motorsport demands speed—not just on the track but in innovation, development, and production. Additive manufacturing is now a critical tool in building high-performance race engine components, delivering intricate geometries, optimized material properties, and rapid production timelines. At Nikon SLM Solutions, we’re driving this revolution forward with cutting-edge laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technology, enabling manufacturers to produce lightweight, high-strength parts that were once impossible. As AM materials continue to evolve, the industry is seeing new alloys specifically engineered for extreme environments, pushing the limits of thermal resistance, durability, and mechanical performance. With materials like AlSi10Mg, Scalmalloy, and CP1, along with multi-laser technology and open architecture systems, our solutions are helping motorsport engineers push beyond conventional constraints. The race for innovation never stops—where will AM take you next?
