Where motorsport DNA meets 5-Axis Milling performances

Motorsport

Motorsports and exotic car manufacturers are challenged to realize topnotch efficiency doing frequent design modifications and tests. This challenges the supply chain to be flexible to machine from Billet to fine finishing on special Aluminum, hard and exotic materials with precision and speed. Our high performance 5-axis Mikron MILL P U series has been a proven source to secure these challenges. Explore why these supply chains rely and closely work with us.

Gearbox manifold body

For responsive gear shift control in a Formula 1 car, the gearbox manifold body demands exceptional precision. Our benchmark in high-performance machining – the 5-Axis Mikron MILL P 800 U – attains outstanding accuracy and surface quality directly from raw billet, enabling assembly after only a protective coating.

Namely, the Mikron MILL P 800 U unlocks:

  • Exceptional surface finish (Ra 0.8 µm) and pitch accuracy
  • Tight tolerances along curvatures and deep holes
  • Concentricity, flatness, and bore diameters

Piston guide

Part of the drag reduction system (DRS) in a Formula 1 car, the piston guide must meet tight tolerances to ensure aerodynamic efficiency and top-speed performance. The 5-Axis Mikron MILL P 800 U delivers the precision and surface quality required, with only minimal post-processing.

With the Mikron MILL P 800 U, you unlock:

  • Thin-walled geometry optimized for high-speed dynamics
  • Surface flatness below 10 µm
  • Shaft hole concentricity below 8 µm

Suspension rocker

For mechanical integrity, the left and right shaft bores of a Formula 1 car must be neatly aligned. The combined capabilities of our 5-Axis Mikron MILL P 800 U and Wire-cutting EDM ensure the accuracy and surface quality required for peak performance.

Together, these technologies enable:

  • Fine profiles and smooth contours
  • Ultra-high surface finish (Ra 0.4 µm)
  • Exceptional mechanical strength, wear resistance, and dimensional stability

Rotor hub

Connecting the brake rotor to the wheel hub, the rotor hub is a vital motorsport component. Integrating roughing and finishing cycles, and our Dynamic Toolpath Control, the Mikron MILL P U achieves the strictest tolerances directly from raw billet.

This process ensures:

  • Flawless alignment between rotor and hub
  • Smooth rotor rotation, preventing judder and vibration
  • Even contact with both brake rotor and wheel hub
