Additive Fusion Technology - A new technology allowing to produce cycling components with continuous fiber composites

• When: Tuesday, September 6th 3pm (CEST)
• Where: Online
• Duration: 1 hour

Topics we will cover:

• Context: challenges in the cycling components supply chains and opportunities for new advanced manufacturing technologies
• Overview of the Additive Fusion Technology (AFT) as one integrated solution to produce continuous fiber composites for cycling components
• Deep dive into AFT’s workflow from the design to the final manufactured part for a cycling component

We will start with an observation about the current challenges in cycling components’ manufacturing supply chains including logistics, development times, material substitution…

Based on this, we will investigate the potential of tapping into advanced manufacturing solutions to overcome some of these challenges. We will illustrate this by showing how one of these advanced manufacturing solutions, the Additive Fusion Technology, brings added value in substituting structural aluminium components with continuous fiber composites.
