Urbee hybrid is the first car come from a printer, probably a large

Stratasys is development partner on Urbee hybrid - the first car to have entire body 3D printed
Hybrid can run exclusively on renewable energies or receive 200 mpg highway speeds

MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--(NASDAQ:_SSYS_-_News) Stratasys a development partnership announced today with Winnipeg engineering group, KOR Ecologic.Die engineering group which is erstellen.Codename Urbee, at the most fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles in the world is the first car ever, its print whole body 3D of additive manufacturing processes.

Electrical / liquid fuel hybrid reaches more than 200 mpg, highway and 100 mpg, city in the U.S. gallon gasoline or ethanol (250 mpg highway 125 mpg city, Imperial gallons).

The car is overnight for a few cents of each standard home outlet can it aufgeladen.Alternativ through renewable energy from a windmill or a solar panel array small enough, charge garage to fit a single car at the top.

For the combined use of city and highway, the Urbee gets 150 mpg and costs just 2 cents per mile. This is only about 10 percent of the fuel by a typical SUV consumed. And on the highway, it costs about 1 cent per mile, or 95% less than the same SUV.

"Other hybrids on the road today were developed by applying of ' green standards to traditional vehicle formats, says Jim CoR President and chief technology officer, KOR ecologic."Urbee was with environmentally sustainable principles dictate every step of the design develops.

"Urbee is the only viable car we take into account can run exclusively on renewable energy," says 1Cor. "it was our goal in designing as ' green as possible in the entire design and manufacturing processes."Stratasys FDM technology was central to achieve this Ziels.FDM gives us tools to eliminate processing and crafted, and it brings incredible efficiency if a design change is required."Run, without any tooling a pilot, you have benefits."

Urbee is the first prototype car ever, body 3D an additive have printed his entire process.All exterior components - including the glass panel prototypes - created RedEye with dimension 3D printers and Fortus 3D production system at Stratasys' digital manufacturing service - on-demand.

The X Prize competition took the Urbee 2010 and its development has been planet for future broadcast chronicled channel's daily discovery.A large-scale Urbee prototype is the first time in the United States at the SEMA show in Las Vegas, November 2-5 technology partner, Tebis, stand no. 10204 displayed.A 1/6 scale finished model the Stratasys appears stand no. 23821.

Urbee is only an example of the FDM for environmentally friendly initiatives wird.Im UK, Gordon Murray design used used Fortus 3D production systems create to help his avant-garde development time city 'Eco-car,' that reveals this July was.
