Product Development

Mathematical process applied to the product projects, before the virtual validation via FEM ( Finite Elements ), which defines the disc and rim profiles.

Prototype homologation via Test machine BI-AXIAL, developed by Fraunhofer Institut (LBF) in Darmstad – Germany. The tests norms of this machine is EUWA 3.23 ( EUWA – European Union Wheels Association ).

R&D ( Research & Development ) performing in the areas of product project, FEM, data acquisition, material and welding.

World Class Raw – Material Suppliers

Steel, welding wire, surface pre-treatment and painting.

Quality

Quality system based on preventive actions : maintainence of a constant robust production process, following ISO standards.

Inspection of 100% of our products – automatic equipment with 35 simultaneous dimensional characteristics ( from the Center Bore measurement to the run-out 2nd. harmonic ).

Controls based on the critical and key characteristics originated from FMEA ( Failure Mode and Effect Analysis ), as well as from the assembling characteristics of the wheels following technical norms such as : ETRTO, TRA, DIN, SAE, JIS, VDA and others.

Well equipped essay fatigue laboratory inside our plant, for rims and discs. Endurance auditing conducted by rim rolling and cornering fatigue machines, in accordance to international standards ( SAEJ 267, EUWA, TUV ).

Salt-spray test performance more than 1.000 hours.

Packages technically dimensioned to assure the perfect integrity of the wheels and manufactured according to international environmental regulations.

Production

Raw-material preparation center ( steel ) - inside the plant.

Last generation painting surface protection system ( E-coat and Top Coat ).

State-of-the-art welding process, performed by robots.

World class disc spinning process
