MotoCzysz utilizes EOS's laser-sintering process for rapid manufacturing of prototypes and functional components. Significantly reducing the lead times of traditional manufacturing methods, the EOS technology allows MotoCzysz's development team to go directly from 3D computer data to finished parts in as little as one day. With only months to go before the second generation C1 is unveiled, the rapid response of the EOS technology is critical in designing and testing engineering concepts. According to Federico Cioni, president of MotoCzysz, "Without the EOS technology, it would be difficult and extremely time consuming to make some of our ideas and design concepts a reality within our stringent time frames. We are thankful to EOS for their help, and pleased with the fit with a company that shares our views towards cutting edge innovation and the future of manufacturing."

Following development of the second generation C1, EOS will support the production of the racer with its unique ability to decrease the time to make race-ready components. MotoCzysz will use the laser-sintering machine to accelerate investment casting of complex C1 parts and in the future will lean heavily on the technology for the direct production of high strength, lightweight titanium components. Jim Fendrick, EOS's vice president North America, stated, "We are pleased to be a partner with MotoCzysz. The innovative concepts in the C1 and the new ideas that the company has embraced are characteristic of the companies that get the most from the EOS technology."
