Title: Tesla reportedly using 3D printed sand molds for 'gigacasting' large auto parts
Post by: Redaktion on September 20, 2023, 00:08:49
Sources familiar with Tesla's production plans have revealed that the company is working on using binder jetting, a special 3D printing technique, to create the sand molds needed for its 'gigacasting' process, where a large, complex part such as the underbody is cast as a single piece of metal. The use of 3D printing in designing the molds would result in a fraction of the cost and time, while making more complex designs possible.
