This week multinational automotive BMW Group invested €10 million (approximately $12.3 million) in a new Additive Manufacturing Campus in Germany. In the teaser for this new facility, discerning viewers may have noticed the 3D printed chassis of a BMW sports bike.

Made for the award winning BMW S1000RR motorcycle, the 3D printed chassis is a demonstration of possibilities yet to come from the company’s developing additive hub

The BMW S1000RR motorcycle was initially made for the 2009 Superbike World Championship and has been subsequently entered into races by multiple world championship, MotoGP and Isle of Man TT riders.

In 2014, Michael Dunlop made TT history taking home 4 wins when riding a S1000RR for BSB team Hawk Racing. Peter Hickman also won the Macau Grand Prix with the bike in 2015 and 2016.

The bike entered commercial production in 2010, and has undergone various iterations over the years to improve its performance.

Racing on air

As of 2016, the S1000RR production model has a wet weight (incl. fuel, lubricants, battery) of 207.7 kg. The race model, by comparison, has a wet weight of just 162 kg. With 3D printing, BMW could reduce the weight of the S1000RR even further, offsetting the weight of heavier components, and optimizing the design for rideability.

The 3D printed S1000RR was demonstrated to visitors at BMW’s Digital Day in Mallorca.

In the concept model, the frame and swingarm have been 3D printed. The method used is a powder-based selective laser melting technology. Topology optimization, and potentially generative design, has been used to create the bike’s “organic” look. Strength is managed along key supportive points on the frame.
