It takes only 44 hours for the world's first 3D printed car to display its parts

In September 16, 3D printing and electric vehicles were both popular fields in the technology industry. A few days ago, the world's first car made from 3D printing parts was unveiled in Chicago, USA.

The electric car, called strati, was made by a local Automotive Company in Phoenix, Arizona. It was unveiled at the International Manufacturing Technology Exhibition in Chicago last week.

This electric car is made of 3D printing, with a maximum speed of 64 kilometers per hour and a charge of up to 192 kilometers.

At the International Manufacturing Technology Exhibition, employees of the local automobile company assembled the electric car with 3D components.

According to the company, it took 44 hours to print all parts with a 3D printer.

John Rogers, chief executive of the Local Automotive Company, told the press: "in the next few months, we want to reduce the total 3D printing time to less than 24 hours, and ultimately to be less than 10 hours ."

According to Rogers, the printing efficiency of electric vehicle parts can be greatly improved in just a few months. Taking the traditional automobile industry as an example, he said that after years of development, German or American Detroit automakers can only produce one car in ten hours on their production lines, therefore, after a period of development, the efficiency of 3D printing for automobile manufacturing can also be greatly improved.

The goal of local automakers is not only to make electric vehicles faster, but also to maximize consumer engagement. It was said that before the creation of strati, the company collected electric vehicle design solutions from consumers through the network. More than 200 solutions were submitted, and they finally chose one of them.

In the U.S. automobile industry, local automobile companies are not well-known. They are a niche manufacturer. Before this 3D-printed electric car, the company's most famous product in the industry was a cross-country racing car named "rally fighter.

According to reports, the local company plans to sell this all-3D printed electric car before the end of this year, prices from $18 thousand to $30 thousand.

Rogers also said that one day they would implement this model, that is, after paying for a car, consumers can wait and watch their cars quickly assembled.

Apparently, the price of $20 thousands or 30 thousands to buy a non-luxury car is too high for average Americans. Rogers also said that they should not only use the most advanced 3D printing technology to make cars, but also reduce the cost of these cars, so that ordinary people can afford them. (Dawn)
