AREVO entered into a partnership with boutique bike manufacturer Franco Bicycles to deliver the world’s first 3D printed, continuous carbon fiber single-piece unibody frame for a new line of eBikes Franco will sell under the “Emery” brand. The companies showcased the new “Emery ONE” eBike at the Sea Otter Classic bicycling event in Monterey, California.The frames are in production now at AREVO’s new multi-purpose facility in Milpitas and this achievement with the Emery ONE represents several breakthroughs for bicycle manufacturers. One of these breakthroughs includes: • True serial, volume production of AM-made composite parts that are made with thermoplastic materials, which are tougher, durable and recyclable, as compared to brittle and non-recyclable thermoset materials “This is the first Composite Additive-Manufactured bike frame and it represents an important milestone for the AM industry as AREVO is delivering on the promise of on-demand manufacturing of composite parts in volume now,” said Hemant Bheda, AREVO Co-Founder and Chairman. “With the introduction of the Emery ONE, the transformation of the global composite bike industry has begun.” Renowned industrial designer Bill Stephens of StudioWest collaborated with the AREVO and Franco teams to design the Emery ONE bike frame.For identifying Growth Opportunities in the Global Composites Market, please visithttp://www.lucintel.com/composites_market_2021.aspx
