3D printing enhances aerodynamics testing for McLaren Racing

Through the application of highly accurate 3D printed parts, McLaren Racing has been able to extract more meaningful results from aerodynamics tests in the wind tunnel in recent years. According to the race team, it has made big strides in its aero optimizations since the technology was adopted, and on top of this, it can now manufacture scale model top-bodies in just three days.

Tim Chapman, head of additive manufacturing at McLaren Racing, said, “Stereolithography technology and the materials have evolved – changing the way we use it.
