-New American Formula 1™ team selected seven 3D Systems SLA systems to accelerate critical wind tunnel testing and parts production prior to its 2026 Formula 1™ race debut -Industry-leading SLA materials portfolio is enabling accurate and rapid production of test parts -3D Systems’ tightly integrated software, materials and machines, plus expert assistance by 3D Systems, allowed Team to “Race to the Race”

ROCK HILL, South Carolina, May 7, 2026 - Today, 3D Systems (NYSE:DDD) announced that Cadillac Formula 1® Team, the newest entrant to the FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP, deployed seven SLA 3D printing systems to accelerate critical wind tunnel testing prior to the 2026 FORMULA 1 season, as well as the development of production parts. The combination of these large format additive manufacturing systems, integrated with 3D Systems software, along with Accura® Xtreme White 200, Accura Xtreme Black and Accura HPC materials, enabled rapid and critical wind tunnel testing within rapidly diminishing race deadlines.

3D Systems' SLA solutions are developed specifically for efficient, high-quality production-grade manufacturing delivering the best in sharp part corners, small extruded and embossed feature details, superior side wall details and smooth layer lines on angled faces in its class. It enables tool-free manufacturing, eliminating weeks of lead time and significantly reducing costs. This was a critical factor while the Cadillac Formula 1® Team qualified for the FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP and continues to be essential for continued race car development.

The FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP is described by Racecar Engineering magazine as "the greatest challenge a manufacturer of mechanical components may ever be confronted with." Indeed, FORMULA 1 racing operates under some of the most stringent technical requirements in all of motorsport. The Cadillac Formula 1® Team worked hard to meet the barriers to entry and secured its place in the 2026 FORMULA 1 season in time for the FORMULA 1 QATAR AIRWAYS AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX 2026 in March.

To achieve this, the team worked with 3D Systems' Application Innovation Group (AIG), a global team of Additive Manufacturing engineers, designers, and technicians who bring expertise to customers to co-develop solutions.

"3D Systems was founded on innovation, pioneering the additive manufacturing industry and we are continuing to lead it into an era of high-precision, highly repeatable production at scale," said Elvis Perez, Senior Vice President, Sales, 3D Systems. "We are pleased that our work has enabled Cadillac Formula 1® team to enter the 2026 FORMULA 1 season despite the short timelines and strict qualification conditions."
