The Blade, the first 3D printed supercar, weighing 90% less that traditional cars, can go from 0-60mph in just two seconds.
刀鋒，首臺(tái)3D打印的跑車，比傳統(tǒng)車輕90%，可以在兩秒內(nèi)完成從0到每小時(shí)60英里的加速。

The Blade is created using a series of?chassis?parts held together by carbon rods - rather like a giant Lego kit.Its 700-horsepower engine can use either compressed natural gas or gasoline, and altogether it weighs just 1400lbs.
刀鋒的底盤部件是由碳棒拼接而成，就像一組巨型的樂高玩具。700馬力的引擎，可以由壓縮天然氣或者汽油驅(qū)動(dòng)，總共才1400磅重。

Society has made great strides in its awareness and adoption of cleaner and greener cars.The problem is that while these cars do now exist, the actual manufacturing of them is anything but environmentally friendly.
社會(huì)已經(jīng)有意識(shí)要采用更清潔、更環(huán)保的能源，并取得了長(zhǎng)足進(jìn)步。問題是，盡管現(xiàn)在有這樣的車，其實(shí)際制造過(guò)程可一點(diǎn)兒也不環(huán)保。

Divergent Microfactories says its approach?incorporates?3D printing to dramatically reduce the pollution, materials and capital costs associated with building automobiles and other large complex structures.At Divergent Microfactories, they've found a way to make automobiles that holds the promise of radically reducing the resource use and pollution generated by manufacturing.It also holds the promise of making large-scale car manufacturing affordable for small teams of?innovators.
DM公司稱他們的方法是融合3D打印技術(shù)，在制造汽車和其他復(fù)雜結(jié)構(gòu)時(shí)大幅減少污染、節(jié)約材料和資金成本。在DM,他們找到了方法，可以減少汽車在生產(chǎn)過(guò)程中的資源使用和環(huán)境污染。有望讓小型創(chuàng)新隊(duì)伍也負(fù)擔(dān)得起大規(guī)模的汽車生產(chǎn)。

The Blade is made using a proprietary solution called a Node: a 3D-printed aluminum joint that connects pieces of carbon fiber tubing to make up the car's chassis.This solves the problem of time and space by cutting down on the actual amount of 3D printing required to build the chassis and can be assembled in just minutes.
刀鋒是用一種叫“節(jié)點(diǎn)”的專利解決方案制成的：一種3D打印的鋁制節(jié)點(diǎn)連接起碳纖維管，組成車子的底盤。這樣，制作底盤實(shí)際所需的3D打印的時(shí)間縮短了，三五分鐘底盤就能組裝完畢，既節(jié)省時(shí)間也不浪費(fèi)空間。?
