The Atomic Layers: S3E07 (00063)
Atomic Layer of the Day:
McLaren joins a wide range of car manufacturers taking advantage of the capabilities offered by Divergent Technologies. The W1 is the latest supercar from the British manufacturer, featuring a series of innovative solutions enabled by 3D printing technology.
McLaren has implemented the Divergent Adaptive Production System (DAPS), which allows for the production of advanced components using 3D printing, significantly reducing the vehicle's weight and enhancing its performance. Divergent’s DAPS enables the design of complex structures that improve production efficiency and support sustainable development.
The McLaren W1 features titanium suspension components, such as uprights and wishbones, produced using 3D printing technology. These components not only reduce the vehicle's weight but also enhance its performance and driving dynamics, representing a breakthrough in sports car construction.
McLaren has joined brands like Bugatti Rimac and Czinger, which have previously utilized Divergent’s technologies in their models.
