From Tires to Interiors, Bentley Designs with 3D Printing
“Stratasys’ rapid prototyping systems have allowed us to develop things in a totally new way. With this technology, we can simulate exactly how the car will look.” — Kevin Baker, Design Model Manager, Bentley Motors

Bentley designers hone nearly every detail of the car, inside and out, with the help of a 3D printer. The Objet500 Connex 3D Printer can build a rubber tire and rigid wheel rim in one piece.
Kevin Baker, design model manager at the Bentley Design Studio, is equally impressed with the way the team’s 3D printing solutions have revolutionized the design processes. “Stratasys’ rapid prototyping systems have allowed us to develop things in a totally new way. With this technology, we can simulate exactly how the car will look,” he says.
