Recently, according to Mohou.com, a Belgian family3DStarting printingShadowhas just launched its first3DPrint electric bikeShadow M1. Should3DPrint the frame of an electric bicycle from a biodegradable polymer material. The company’s goal is to offer people a more environmentally responsible bicycle and, as a result, their materials are more environmentally friendly. The bike is developed, manufactured and assembled in Belgium, minimizing shipping processes, costs and the associated carbon footprint.Shadow M1The cruising range is approximately70kilometers, selling price2499euros (approx.1.7Ten thousand yuan), excluding accessories.
△Shadow M1The framework adopts3DPrinting technology to provide customers with a greater driving experience
In Europe and the United States, electric bicycles are increasingly appearing in cities, aiming to replace cars and thus reduce the impact of people on the environment. According to statistics from the Light Electric Vehicle Association,202The United States imports nearly 200 electric bikes79Ten thousand vehicles, against2020annual46.3The thousands of vehicles have increased significantly. Data projections show that this trend will only increase globally.

ShadowProvide a different ordering experience for electric vehicle customers.
Before ordering a bike, the manufacturer must obtain the customer’s biometric data, then the company enters the customer’s data into the design software to adjust the frame size in a targeted design. Then send the frame data to3Dprinter, which is a greatFFF 3DPrinting machine (its brand is currently unknown). It is known to extrude CO2-neutral biodegradable filaments.
