Built with ultimate performance in mind, the new hypercar comes equipped with a carbon motor cartridge, multiple electric motors, an advanced battery pack, and a sleek aerodynamic design.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Farboud has been using 3D printing in his design and development process for years. He has been a long-time fan of MakerBot 3D printers, starting with the Replicator 2, which he bought six years ago and still uses to this day for small model parts for customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">He also has the Replicator Z18, which has been quite a workhorse for him over the years. Its ability to produce large, tall, and strong structures has allowed him to use it for a mix of prototyping, production parts, and scale models.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Farboud is most excited about his shop\u2019s latest acquisition: the MakerBot <a href=\"https:\/\/www.makerbot.com\/3d-printers\/method\/\">METHOD X<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWhen we received our METHOD X, it was like Christmas morning,\u201d Farboud enthused. \u201cLike any other MakerBot printer, it was very easy to use right out of the box. The unboxing and setup instructions were easy to follow \u2013 and it had us printing immediately. We really love it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-heading fl-node-6046663ebaad2\" data-node=\"6046663ebaad2\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <h2 class=\"fl-heading\">\n        <span class=\"fl-heading-text\">ENGINEERING THE FUTURE<\/span>\n    <\/h2>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-photo fl-node-60466d069a8b9\" data-node=\"60466d069a8b9\">\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_1631\" class=\"wp-block-image \"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1164\" src=\"https:\/\/ultimaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mkb_blog_5787de7e-c50e-43e3-a45f-ccbbffbe2079.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n                    <\/div>\n        <div class=\"fl-photo-caption fl-photo-caption-below\"><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-5f2c5d62177ee\" data-node=\"5f2c5d62177ee\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For the company\u2019s latest electric hypercar project, Farboud and his team utilized all three MakerBot 3D printers for a range of applications, giving them the flexibility and speed needed for production.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">First, the team used the Replicator 2 to produce the full-scale model which now sits on display in their boardroom. To create the model, it was printed in multiple pieces, glued together, and then hand-painted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">From that point on, the team began designing the complex chassis structure and the aerodynamic structure. This was where the Z18 excelled. From new techniques like suspension and wing design, wishbone suspension checks, hub and center lock fitments, and scale models to show structural parts, the Z18 proved itself to be very useful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the METHOD X, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.makerbot.com\/3d-printers\/method-carbon-fiber-edition\/\">MakerBot Nylon Carbon Fiber<\/a>, ABS, and Tough, they were able to make production parts for the vehicle. The METHOD X is able to produce parts in real form, allowing the team to use the parts for stress tests, brackets, gears, and other components for the car.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The hypercar has a lot of complex pieces inside, such as the rear and lower rear wing, so the team had to figure out how to reduce the weight of machining aluminium. To do that, they instead used 3D printed nylon carbon parts.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"fl-col-group fl-node-60466f908fb9b fl-col-group-nested\" data-node=\"60466f908fb9b\">\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-60466f908fcd8 fl-col-small\" data-node=\"60466f908fcd8\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-6046711012e4b\" data-node=\"6046711012e4b\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe\u2019re using a lot of bracketry, fasting points, and fixing points around the car in a 3D-printed nylon carbon fiber. We\u2019re also using a lot of interior structures in ABS and nylon carbon fiber because it\u2019s quicker and easier to make. We\u2019re trying to get 95+% of the car in a composite material to be even higher, and we\u2019re also trying to reduce the complexity of manufacturing to 3D printing. We\u2019re only focusing on the parts that really matter in composite manufacturing &#8211; chassis, body panels, some interior structures. We\u2019re deskilling a lot of the processes in some ways and upskilling in other ways for the complexity and accuracy,\u201d Farboud stated.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-60466f908fcdb fl-col-small\" data-node=\"60466f908fcdb\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-photo fl-node-60467013d1b9a\" data-node=\"60467013d1b9a\">\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-png\">\n                <figure id=\"attachment_mmd_1632\" class=\"wp-block-image \"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/ultimaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mkb_blog_Arash-part-placement.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Arash part placement\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n                    <\/div>\n        <div class=\"fl-photo-caption fl-photo-caption-below\"><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n<div class=\"fl-col-group fl-node-604670eb34883 fl-col-group-nested\" data-node=\"604670eb34883\">\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-604670eb34a65 fl-col-small\" data-node=\"604670eb34a65\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-photo fl-node-60466e4f60bde\" data-node=\"60466e4f60bde\">\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-png\">\n                <figure id=\"attachment_mmd_1633\" class=\"wp-block-image \"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/ultimaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mkb_blog_Arash-car-enine.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n                    <\/div>\n        <div class=\"fl-photo-caption fl-photo-caption-below\"><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-604670eb34a69 fl-col-small\" data-node=\"604670eb34a69\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-6046714a60a2e\" data-node=\"6046714a60a2e\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201c3D printing in-house also means you can get things done quickly, immediately, and at the lowest cost possible. That means you\u2019re able to experiment without too much fear and worry about spend. You\u2019re just spending money on your filament and your time so that allows you to try things out fearlessly,\u201d he continued.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The team used to send parts out to be machined locally or overseas, which was costly and time-consuming. With direct access to 3D printers, they can send their CAD design directly to the METHOD X to make a part, check it, and test it. With the technological advances in 3D printing, there is little to no need for post-processing and they can immediately take the printed part to check and test on the car.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-60d222a6eaabd\" data-node=\"60d222a6eaabd\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The standard timeline for car production can be lengthy, about three to four years. The timeline for the hypercar shortened a bit as the team did not have to deal with petrol engines, fuel systems, exhaust systems, gear boxes, or the typical calibrations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With three designs from sketch to scale modeling to CAD modeling to fixtures, servicing, and interiors, the team was able to shorten their timeline to 12 months. From that point on, they were able to create a couple of prototype and test vehicles \u2013 and then move towards full productization.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-photo fl-node-60d222e307b44\" data-node=\"60d222e307b44\">\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_1634\" class=\"wp-block-image \"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1052\" src=\"https:\/\/ultimaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mkb_blog_6e4037ba-f6d4-4d53-a129-5e641afcde2c.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-60d0f64fafb4d\" data-node=\"60d0f64fafb4d\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe MakerBot 3D printer series reduces the time from a file on a computer screen to prototyping and checking for touch and feel. That\u2019s a big thing. Sometimes you miss a hole or a fixture, but you can catch that on a CAD model. Then after it\u2019s printed, you can physically check it,\u201d Farboud said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe are still using every 3D printer that we own because they still work really well. They have an ability to make parts dependent on size and their usage. In fact, the METHOD X and Z18 are currently being used nonstop at our facility. This allows us to not only produce parts as needed, but we can experiment with different filaments. It\u2019s a 24\/7 operation for 3Dprinting,\u201d he continued.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The team uses nylon 12 carbon fiber for structural parts and anything that is put under tension. In addition, due to their strong thermal properties, both ABS and carbon fiber are frequently used as part of other machined carbon fiber structures, which would need to be cured at 90\u00b0C. They also use Tough for majority of the work, which has medium requirements for performance in terms of structural stability and pressure management. The team plans to experiment with more METHOD materials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe METHOD X has a built-in advantage of having a heated chamber, which is critical for us as it allows for dimensional accuracy. As the part is being made, the base doesn\u2019t move and there is no warping. This allows for high accuracy for a 3D printer of today\u2019s standards. We\u2019ve done several tests and it\u2019s been very accurate each time,\u201d noted Farboud.<\/span><\/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-photo fl-node-5fb46082de225\" data-node=\"5fb46082de225\">\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-5fb46082cf088\" data-node=\"5fb46082cf088\">\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-5fb46082cf08b fl-col-has-cols\" data-node=\"5fb46082cf08b\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n\n<div class=\"fl-col-group fl-node-5fb46082cf08c fl-col-group-nested fl-col-group-equal-height fl-col-group-align-bottom\" data-node=\"5fb46082cf08c\">\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-5fb46082cf08d\" data-node=\"5fb46082cf08d\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-photo fl-node-5fb46082cf090\" data-node=\"5fb46082cf090\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-photo fl-photo-align-left\">\n    <div class=\"fl-photo-content fl-photo-img-png\">\n                <figure id=\"attachment_mmd_990\" class=\"wp-block-image \"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"913\" height=\"89\" src=\"https:\/\/ultimaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mkb_blog_MakerBot-Method-logo-white.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"MakerBot Method logo white\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-5fb46082cf08f\" data-node=\"5fb46082cf08f\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff\">FREE DOWNLOAD <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff\">The 2022 Guide to 3D Printing Materials<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-button fl-node-5fb46082cf091\" data-node=\"5fb46082cf091\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-button-wrap fl-button-width-auto fl-button-left\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/pages.makerbot.com\/22MaterialsGuide.html?utm_source=website&amp;utm_medium=organic&amp;utm_campaign=22-WW-PRO-MaterialsGuide&amp;utm_content=blogpost\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"fl-button\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener\">\n                            <span class=\"fl-button-text\">GET YOUR FREE COPY<\/span>\n                    <\/a>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-5fb46082cf08e fl-col-small\" data-node=\"5fb46082cf08e\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\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-5fb45fcf85257\" data-node=\"5fb45fcf85257\">\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-60466ca66514b\" data-node=\"60466ca66514b\">\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-60466ca6651f5 fl-col-has-cols\" data-node=\"60466ca6651f5\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-heading fl-node-6046718ace4b9\" data-node=\"6046718ace4b9\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <h2 class=\"fl-heading\">\n        <span class=\"fl-heading-text\">HYPER-ACCELERATING PRODUCTION<\/span>\n    <\/h2>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-6046728e260b7\" data-node=\"6046728e260b7\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a small company, Arash Motor Company is able to produce small volume parts, in a very similar manner to motorsports or aerospace. With 3D printing, it allows the team to try out their suggestions on improving performance &#8211; from the composite structures, to the engines and electric motors, to the aerodynamics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prior to 3D printing, Farboud and his team would go through the cumbersome process of fabricating aluminium, bending aluminium, welding things together, shaping things from blocks of aluminium or foam and wrapping them in materials, or some other less accurate and time-consuming way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThis takes a long time with very skilled people. And now that skill isn\u2019t there anymore, or it\u2019s becoming even more expensive,\u201d Farboud said. \u201cWith 3D printing, the steps toward making trial parts have become easier. The focus now is getting your CAD design right. After that, you just press play and it gets made right there in your shop.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe amount of resources needed to do those steps is straining. Once you have a 3D printer to eliminate a lot of those steps, then you\u2019re allowing your resources to be used on things that really matter to you,\u201d he continued.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The team uses MakerBot CloudPrint to slice, manage, preview, queue, and monitor their prints. MakerBot CloudPrint allows each of the designers to view the status of the prints on any of the printers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIt helps because sometimes you want to know when something is done and you need to start a new print, or to see if something is stuck, then you can stop the print. Allows everyone to understand where they are in their schedule for manufacturing,\u201d said Farboud.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"fl-col-group fl-node-60469cf7c76c0 fl-col-group-nested\" data-node=\"60469cf7c76c0\">\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-60469cf7c77e3\" data-node=\"60469cf7c77e3\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-photo fl-node-60469b319db61\" data-node=\"60469b319db61\">\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-png\">\n                <figure id=\"attachment_mmd_1635\" class=\"wp-block-image \"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/ultimaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mkb_blog_Arash-car-checking.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n                    <\/div>\n        <div class=\"fl-photo-caption fl-photo-caption-below\"><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n<div class=\"fl-col-group fl-node-60466b7aabdcf\" data-node=\"60466b7aabdcf\">\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-60466b7aabe76\" data-node=\"60466b7aabe76\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-heading fl-node-60466b7aabd78\" data-node=\"60466b7aabd78\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <h2 class=\"fl-heading\">\n        <span class=\"fl-heading-text\">EXPLORING THE UNKNOWN<\/span>\n    <\/h2>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n<div class=\"fl-col-group fl-node-5fb45fcf95a50\" data-node=\"5fb45fcf95a50\">\n            <div class=\"fl-col fl-node-5fb45fcf95ba3\" data-node=\"5fb45fcf95ba3\">\n    <div class=\"fl-col-content fl-node-content\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module fl-module-rich-text fl-node-5fb46040b75ce\" data-node=\"5fb46040b75ce\">\n    <div class=\"fl-module-content fl-node-content\">\n        <div class=\"fl-rich-text\">\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The team has plans to continue using METHOD X and Z18 to create more production parts to be used in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cMost people think that 3D printing filaments being used are not strong enough, or that 3D printing is only used for models or prototypes.
