UK-based Radford Motors builds exclusive luxury automobiles with a focus on high craftsmanship, limited production, customization and performance. To prototype and build the Radford Lotus Type 62-2 production vehicle, the company relied on additive manufacturing to enable an agile development and production process. The combination of printer capability and strong yet lightweight materials gives Radford Motors the ability to design and build the tooling and components of each custom vehicle much more quickly and cost-effectively than conventional production methods. The capabilities offered by additive manufacturing help make Radford Motors’ business model of producing low-volume, highly customized automobiles economically viable.
