I believe it will change how we fundamentally manufacture in our sport,\u201d<\/em> said Michael Leavine, vice president of Leavine Family Racing. Leavine Family Racing raced the No. 95 Toyota Camry in the NASCAR Cup Series from 2011 to 2020.\u00a0The team completed the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series season with a top 20 finish, with Rookie of the Year contender Christopher Bell behind the wheel.<\/p>\n<p>Leavine had been using 3D printing for the team\u2019s race cars for years, initially discovering the technology when he looked for a cost-effective approach to making inch-wide pucks used to fill holes in the splitters on the cars, which is a sensitive aerodynamic component on the cars that offers an improvement in performance, instead of buying them from a vendor. The injection-molded pucks were typically five dollars each and used only once before being discarded. Leavine bought a lower-end 3D printer online and started printing the pucks in-house with PLA material, ultimately saving the team $20,000-$25,000 a year.<\/p>\n<p>After that, he started to explore other applications in racing with 3D printing, such as prototyping fitment and fabricating fixtures.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-row fl-row-fixed-width fl-row-bg-none fl-node-5fb45a62b4418\" data-node=\"5fb45a62b4418\">\n    <div class=\"fl-row-content-wrap\">\n                        <div class=\"fl-row-content fl-row-fixed-width fl-node-content\">\n\n<div class=\"fl-col-group fl-node-5fb45a62bf094\" data-node=\"5fb45a62bf094\">\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-5fb45a62bf19f fl-col-has-cols\" data-node=\"5fb45a62bf19f\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-photo fl-node-5fb45a62b399d\" data-node=\"5fb45a62b399d\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-photo fl-photo-align-center\">\n    <div class=\"fl-photo-content fl-photo-img-jpg\">\n                <figure id=\"attachment_mmd_1648\" class=\"wp-block-image \"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1366\" src=\"https:\/\/ultimaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mkb_blog_LFR-95-MB-2048x1366-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"LFR-95-MB-2048x1366\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-heading fl-node-5fb45ffeeb544\" data-node=\"5fb45ffeeb544\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <h2 class=\"fl-heading\">\n        <span class=\"fl-heading-text\">ACCELERATING DESIGN WITH 3D PRINTING<\/span>\n    <\/h2>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-5fb45a977a91e\" data-node=\"5fb45a977a91e\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\n<p>Leavine selected the MakerBot METHOD X\u2122 3D printer for its impressive portfolio of materials and advanced thermoplastics, which is suitable for both rapid prototyping and end-use parts.
