3D Printing Nerd, Adam Savage, The Hacksmith, Paramount Pictures, and Velo3D roll out! We’re incredibly excited to share two fantastic videos that chronicle the story of how Velo3D, working alongside 3D Printing Nerd and Paramount Pictures, 3D printed the head of Optimus Primal, leader of the Maximals, as seen in Paramount Pictures upcoming feature film “Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.”
Both the head and stand featured in the videos are comprised of Inconel® 718, a high-performance nickel-based alloy used by some of today’s most innovative space companies. The superalloy is known for its strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance—properties that make it an ideal material for objects exposed to harsh environments and rival robot factions.
If you’re a fan of Transformers or 3D printing, be sure to watch the videos and learn how we helped bring a character from one of popular culture’s most beloved series to life!
