Conflux Technology Develops 3D-Printed Heat Exchangers for High-Performance Supercars
Conflux Technology, founded by former F1 engineer Michael Fuller, has developed advanced 3D-printed heat exchangers that significantly reduce weight and enhance cooling efficiency for high-performance supercars, including a collaboration with Donkervoort that cut the weight of a water charge air cooler from 16kg to 1.4kg. The company has also partnered with Pagani to create a hypercar transmission that is 30% more efficient than traditional designs. With plans to expand into aerospace and defense, Conflux recently opened a facility in Sheffield, UK, to meet growing European demand.

Conflux Technology, founded in 2015 by former F1 engineer Michael Fuller in Geelong, Australia, specializes in 3D-printed heat exchangers. By 2025, the company announced significant advancements through collaborations with automotive manufacturers, including a project with Dutch firm Donkervoort for its P24 RS supercar, achieving a weight reduction from 16kg to 1.4kg per water charge air cooler.
Conflux's technology utilizes metal additive manufacturing to create complex geometries, enhancing cooling efficiency. A six-year partnership with Pagani also resulted in a hypercar transmission that is 30% more efficient than conventional designs. Conflux aims to expand into other sectors such as aerospace and defense while recently opening a facility in Sheffield, UK, to support European demand and enhance local production capabilities.
