China3D printingNet, September 6, California3D printingBike manufacturer Carbon has established a partnership with American bicycle equipment manufacturer fizik to create an adaptive3D printingBicycle saddle.
The adaptive saddle uses Carbon’s Digital Light Synthesis (DLS)3D printingTechnical manufacturing. The bicycle seat is the latest member of the company’s consumer product line under the “Crafted by Carbon” product line.
Through cooperation with Specialized and now fizik, Carbon is committed to establishing the DLS process as the standard for saddle technology. Fizik brand director Luca Mathia Bertoncello on the riding saddle3D printingI am very excited about the possibility of: “Digital lighting synthesis technology has opened a new era of saddle design and manufacturing, driven by athlete data and agile manufacturing technology. This means that we can fully release our creativity, not only change our creation, And change our way of creation and bring a whole new way of thinking to the saddle of cycling.
Our goal is to provide them with tailor-made products and their personal biodynamic data. “

Fizik is committed to adopting Carbon 3D printingInnovative bicycle saddle
fizik was established in 1996, focusing on performance, comfort, lightweight technology and innovation, creating saddles, tires and other component designs for riding. The company’s goal is to provide bicycle equipment from riders to amateurs.Launched in collaboration with Fizik and Carbon3D printingAdaptive bicycle saddles, the project is an interdisciplinary collaboration of leading industry experts and scholars, aiming to position fizik at the forefront of bicycle innovation.Adaptive represents fizik’s first bicycle product line3D printingBicycle saddle. Using Carbon DLS technology, the fizik team of designers, sports scientists and engineers was able to precisely adjust the properties of the saddle. According to the needs of cyclists, the team can meet requirements such as power transmission, shock absorption, stability and comfort, without being limited by traditional manufacturing methods and materials.

According to Carbon, the production of the adaptive saddle involves the implementation of nine years of cumulative pressure mapping data collected by professional cyclist fizik. Then adjust the adaptive lattice structure according to the data to provide an optimized response curve. Now, the bicycle brand is committed to using Carbon’s EPU 41 material to manufacture a full range of saddles, this material has regional cushioning and excellent support and power transmission performance. Fizik’s first adaptive saddle will be based on its Versus Evo 00 platform, which is a high-performance racing saddle made entirely of carbon fiber.
Carbon also pointed out that any design can pass Carbon DLS based on personalized data 3D printingMake adjustments and customizations.Therefore, fizik can consider the final collection of customer stress mapping data to be implemented in the store3D printingThe prospect of bicycle saddles to create a completely personalized consumer experience.
“We are proud to work with fizik to unlock their unique product vision to push the limits of saddle design,” said Erika Berg, Carbon’s head of application development. “Fizik uses Carbon Lattice Engine to match the optimal response curve based on rider feedback, and achieve design and production based on its unique product vision.”

When the company announced its cooperation with Specialized at the end of August 2019, it first disclosed the carefully crafted Carbon seal.In addition to co-founding with two bicycle companies3D printingBeyond the bicycle saddle,Carbon cooperates with Riddell, a US football equipment supplier, to provide the company’s SpeedFlex Precision Diamond3D printinglining. On the other hand, in cooperation with the German footwear giant Adidas, DLS 3D printingIt has been used in the manufacture of ADIDAS 4D, a new type of shoe midsole technology that has been demonstrated on various adidas sports shoes.
