Stratasys has signed a four year agreement with McLaren Racing to supply a suite of 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions. Under the agreement, Stratasys, the official supplier of 3D printing solutions to the McLaren-Honda Formula 1 team, will supply McLaren Racing with its latest FDM and PolyJet based 3D printing solutions and materials.

These will be used for visual and functional prototyping, production tooling including composite tooling, and customised production parts, enabling their accelerated delivery while increasing performance and productivity in design and manufacturing operations.

“McLaren Racing will be leveraging our nearly 30 years of 3D printing and additive manufacturing experience to stay at the forefront of motorsport technological development,” Stratasys CEO Ilan Levin said. “Stratasys will also gain invaluable feedback and insights from working with ultra-high performance automotive applications, which we can then apply to our mainstream automotive and aerospace customers.”

The McLaren Technology Group, which owns McLaren Racing, has grown to encompass much more than just grand prix racing. It produced the 1990’s original supercar, the McLaren F1, and, with the launch of McLaren Automotive, has gone on to introduce a series of high-performance cars, including the ground-breaking McLaren P1.
