We realized four wheels for a show car, starting from the style provide by the Customer. The processing was carried out by milling a solid block, the finish of the rims was obtained through hand-polishing and frosting.

The Customer requested also to hide the fixing holes, which we did using aluminum inserts to fully cover the spokes.

In the event of a puncture during a rally competition, the crew has to provide autonomously to wheel change: it is necessary to be equipped with a fast jack that can lift the car safely.

The challenge for our team was to create a fast and ergonomic product that would satisfy certain characteristics: low weight, low cost equipment, lifting speed and ease of use in compliance with the basic safety requirements.

After over a year of work and several prototypes the result has been EVOjack, still considered the best professional jack for rally use.

Starting from the style provided by the car manufacturer, we optimized the design of the rim for the subsequent CNC machining, starting from a forged blank. We performed several FEA calculation cycles to simulate all the approval tests required by the car manufacturer, with the aim of reducing to a minimum the final weight of the object.

The end result was provided in the form of complete and ready to production 3D models, as well as 2D drawings for the production and in-line quality control.

This project had been provided by the customer almost ready for production. The request was to use FEA simulations to analyze the behavior of the wheel subjected to fatigue tests – such as rotating bending and rim rolling – required by the road regulations of the German TÜV.

We identified the weak points of the rim, changed the style in order to eliminate the problems and finally removed the material where not required.

In this way, the customer saved time and money by avoiding to produce a model that would have later failed the test.

The motorcycle wheel design – to be produced in fusion with low pressure – had been provided by the customer almost ready for production. We were asked to use the FEA simulations to analyze the behavior of the wheel subjected to road use.

We identified the weak points of the wheel, changed the style in order to eliminate the problems and finally removed the material where not required. In this way, the customer saved time and money by avoiding to produce a model that would have later failed the tests, with the resulting changes in production equipment and subsequent new casting processes.

We collaborated with the customer’s design center to optimize the design of the wheel.

The project had strict restrictions in terms of final weight and clearance for the brake calipers of the car. Moreover, the manufacturer demands regarding the safety factor and the compliance with the international standards complicated the end of works.

Starting from the project data, we implemented the wheel to fit for road use; in the following phase, we conducted a study for the optimization of the CNC machining of the forged blank.

Over the years we have realized different projects in the field of sports bike: stems, appendices for time trial handlebars, saddle fixing and cranks.

The studies have included a part of design and engineering development, defining the style or starting from a base provided by the customer, with the technical specifications and project requirements defined and discussed together with the customer’s technical department.

We have carried out FEA / FEM analysis by simulating different kinds of use and performed the laboratory tests for the internal approval or in accordance with the various regulations TUV and DIN, ISO and UNI.

Particularly sensitive to cutting (shearing effect), the carbon tube of the saddle support has been analyzed in detail to eliminate any critical point.
