Azoth Produces First Metal 3D Printed Part on a Production Vehicle for General

Motors

Ann Arbor, MI July 12, 2021 --(PR.com)-- Azoth, a vertically integrated additive manufacturing
company, is manufacturing the first metal 3D printed part using binder jetting on a General Motors
production vehicle.

A unique, 3D printed medallion produced by Azoth sits on the manual shifter knob of the new 2022
Cadillac Blackwing V-series models, which features a manual transmission as well as additional 3D parts
developed by General Motors.

Azoth is a leader in the metal binder jetting space and through its advanced 3D printing processes, it can
save time and costs when producing parts while passing all Production Part Approval Process (PPAP)
requirements, said Azoth General Manager and Co-Founder Cody Cochran.

“It is exciting to work with a forward-thinking company like GM who understands the benefits that
additive manufacturing brings to production. I believe this is a breakthrough application for the 3D
printing industry and a major win for metal binder jetting, proving this is a production ready process,” he
said.

The new Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing as well as the CT5-V Blackwing features the manual transmission, a
popular feature for driving enthusiasts

In a press release issued late last year, Cadillac said that by leveraging additive manufacturing, it was able
to reduce costs and waste when developing the manual transmission.
