The Robot Bike Company’s R160 mountain bike frame is a highly customisable, carbon fibre construction featuring titanium lugs that are manufactured using laser powder bed fusion technology on Renishaw’s metal Additive Manufacturing systems. Renishaw provided its expertise in Additive Manufacturing, machining and metrology to help deliver a high quality bike frame from an initial design concept.

“Renishaw’s heritage of engineering expertise perfectly complements our developments in the field of Additive Manufacturing,” stated Clive Martell, Head of Global Additive Manufacturing at Renishaw. “We work with an impressive range of companies from some of the most progressive industries in the world, including healthcare, dental, aerospace and automotive.
