Discover the transformative potential of additive manufacturing with HBD at RAPID + TCT

HBD recently achieved remarkable results in a turbine blade printing project. We successfully decreased the unsupported angle from the conventional 45° to 6°, leading to a 96% reduction in overall support volume. Throughout the turbine blade printing process, we eliminated the internal support structures of the specimenimpeller, employing only a minimal amount of support...

This season marks the second time HBD has supported the TJURacing team. Building on the successful results from our previous collaboration, TJURacing team chose to integrate HBD’s metal 3D printing technology into several critical areas of their car, particularly within the chassis and powertrain.

Support structures in additive manufacturing can increase production time and material costs. Removing these support structures can be labor-intensive and may damage delicate thin-walled structures. Moreover, supports in closed structures and internal channels are not removable. Hence, we developed a support-free printing solution to address these issues.
