2
Enhanced Design Flexibility
Reduction in Weight
DMLS enables the creation of highly complex
geometries that are difficult or impossible to
achieve through traditional manufacturing
processes.
By utilizing DMLS, automakers can create
lightweight parts without compromising strength,
resulting in improved fuel efficiency and
performance.

Cost Savings
Tooling-Free Production
With DMLS, manufacturers can save costs by
reducing the need for expensive tooling and
eliminating waste material.
DMLS eliminates the need for complex tooling,
enabling faster production cycles for prototypes
and low-volume production runs.

Improved Part Performance
Corrosion Resistance
DMLS allows for the production of highly durable,
precise, and functional parts with excellent
mechanical properties.
By utilizing corrosion-resistant metals like
stainless steel or titanium, DMLS parts can
withstand harsh environments and extend the
lifespan of automobile components.
4Applications of DMLS in Automobile Manufacturing
Prototyping and Tooling
Production of Complex Parts
Customization and Personalization
Exhaust Systems
DMLS enables the rapid production of functional
prototypes and custom tooling, reducing lead
times and costs.
DMLS is ideal for manufacturing intricate
components, such as engine parts, turbochargers,
and gearbox components.
DMLS allows for the creation of customized parts
tailored to individual customer preferences,
enhancing the overall driving experience.
DMLS enables the production of high-performance
exhaust systems with complex internal geometries
for optimal airflow and improved engine
efficiency.
Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Components
Heat Exchangers
Brake Calipers
Exterior Body Panels
DMLS is employed to manufacture heat exchangers
and heat sinks used for cooling various
automotive systems, such as engines,
transmissions, and power electronics in electric
vehicles (EVs).
DMLS is used to create high-performance brake
calipers that are not only strong and
heat-resistant but can also be customized in
terms of design and branding.
Some high-end and concept vehicles incorporate
DMLS-produced exterior body panels, showcasing
intricate designs and enhancing aerodynamics.
In hybrid and electric vehicles, where weight
reduction is critical, DMLS is used to create
lightweight battery components, motor housings,
and structural components for battery enclosures.
5Real Life Case Study of DMLS in Automobile
Industry
1
Audi's Metal 3D-Printed Suspension Components
Audi reduced the weight of the suspension
components while maintaining strength and
durability. This contributed to improved
handling, performance, and fuel efficiency in the
Audi RS 3 series.
2
Porsche's DMLS Pistons for 911 GT2 RS
Porsche used DMLS to create pistons from a
high-strength aluminum alloy. The complex
internal structure of the pistons was optimized
for weight reduction and heat dissipation,
essential for a high-performance engine.
3
General Motors' Lightweight Seat Bracket
The DMLS-produced seat bracket significantly
reduced the weight of the car, leading to
improved fuel efficiency and handling. GM also
saved on material costs due to the efficient
lattice structure design.
4
Bugatti Chiron Brake Caliper
These DMLS-produced calipers contribute to
enhanced vehicle safety and performance,
showcasing the potential for advanced
manufacturing techniques to elevate luxury and
high-performance vehicles to new levels of
excellence.
