Monolithic designs not only significantly reduce overall weight but also simplify maintenance with fewer parts to manage, streamlining system serviceability.

Adaptable
Geometry


Morphed topology offers unmatched design freedom. Tailored to fit available spaces, providing flexibility in form factor and enabling seamless integration into a wide range of systems.

Electric vehicles and additive manufacturing

The possibilities of what additive manufacturing (AM) can deliver in terms of design, performance and production are now being investigated by electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers around the world. 

With the design flexibility that AM enables, EV manufacturers can achieve lighter weight and more compact heat exchangers. Time from design to build is substantially decreased, allowing for rapid prototyping straight into reliable serial production. 
 
Electric vehicles require both cooling and heating to maintain battery temperatures at the optimum window to ensure performance and range.  Additive manufacturing opportunities for thermal control in EV is a topic we discuss in this article
