3-D Prototyping
The final prototype is tested in our workshop to make sure that everything fits perfectly and that there are no defects.
We always work with a 3D model in advance, as it is often the case that certain dimensions and conditions cannot be taken on the tuning adapter in advance. With the 3D model, we can be sure that everything fits.
Production
After Matthias' approval, we mill the brake tuning adapter for the Saab 9-3 to a precise fit. Afterwards it is taken to the surface refiner.
