Had a lot of fun working with some great people on my latest video project. Audi Sport GmbH uses UltiMaker and trinckle solutions to efficiently create fixtures and tools. These fixtures make tasks drastically easier and faster for workers at Audi Sport. Here's the video we've created to show this very interesting use case. #Additivemanufacturing #automotive #3Dprinting #manufacturing

In the fast-paced world of automotive design, accuracy and efficiency are not just goals; they're necessities. At Protec, we've seen firsthand how 3D scanning and metrology have revolutionised these aspects of design. 3D scanning offers an unparalleled level of precision, capturing every contour and dimension of automotive parts. This leads to highly accurate models that serve as the foundation for design and production. For engineers, this means reduced errors, streamlined workflows, and a significant cut in time-to-market. Metrology, the science of measurement, complements this by ensuring that every component meets stringent quality standards. In the automotive sector, where safety and performance are paramount, metrology provides the assurance that every part functions as intended, fitting perfectly into the larger design. Together, these technologies enable us to push the boundaries of what's possible in automotive design, creating vehicles that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also superior in performance and safety.

This is called a 3d printer blob of death ☠️ and I just had a bad one happen in the engineering lab. Tough luck when we rely on the trusty printer to churn out parts for prototypes and tooling. ⚙️ In situations like these, there is no other option but to get the tools out to disassemble, assess the damage and order spare parts. 🔩 What I learned from this fiasco - have spare parts printed beforehand - ensure clean printbed and environment between print jobs. - Take the time to monitor the first few layers as they go down.

We used our Zaxe Z3S 3D printer with ABS filament to produce an automobile disc brake prototype. The disc brake is a critical part of the vehicle’s braking system. What is a Disc Brake? A disc brake is used to slow down or stop the wheel’s rotation. Why Choose ABS Filament? - Durability: ABS is highly resistant to impacts. - Heat Resistance: Withstands high temperatures. - Surface Quality: Provides smooth surface quality and easy workability. With the Zaxe Z3S, you can produce prototypes of the highest quality. #AutomotivePrototyping
