A leading domestic bicycle manufacturer recently announced the successful application of large-scale 3D printing technology in the production of its high-end carbon fiber frames. This technology abandons traditional mold limitations. High-precision printing equipment is used to layer prepreg carbon fiber materials. This not only shortens the prototype development cycle by 40%, but also enables the optimization of the complex topological structure inside the frame, precisely thickening key stressed areas and creating extreme hollowing in non-load-bearing areas. Ultimately, the frame successfully reduced weight by 15% while passing rigorous safety tests. This technological breakthrough has opened up new avenues for small-batch, highly customized, and competition-level frame production, and is expected to rapidly penetrate the high-end market.
