Reader Submitted: Robots 3D Print a Stainless Steel Bicycle Designed by Students from TU Delft

A student team from TU Delft in the Netherlands has designed and produced a fully functional 3D printed stainless steel bicycle. The students designed the frame of the bicycle to demonstrate the potential of a new method for 3D printing metal.

The students achieved the goal of their three-month project by printing the bicycle frame with the help of MX3D in Amsterdam. The bicycle was designed as part of a research project at the Industrial Design Engineering faculty into the viability of metal 3D printing using a welding process. Part of wider research being done at the Delft University of Technology and the 3D Building FieldLab.
