FORGED ENGINEERED ART.
We at Eurobahndynamics partnered with Velocity Forge to continue to dedicate the automotive industry in producing not only wheels, but also a lifestyle that reflects a passion for creativity and a desire for delivering the finest wheels. Performance and longevity is the hallmark of a great wheel. That is why we place a heavy emphasis on precision designing, precise engineering and expert craftsmanship. Aiming to achieve the highest quality wheels in its class.
THE FOUNDATION.
Our team at Velocity Forge with over 20 years of combined forged wheel experience allows us to have full control over the quality of our process. Each order goes through Finite Element Analysis (FEA) testing to ensure the most optimal combination of lightweight, durability, and strength.
WHY FORGED?
By making the wheel a forged one piece we have eliminated any possibility of porosity. The world’s leading aircraft manufacturers use one-piece forgings for superior performance in critical structural applications. velocity Forge Wheels uses the same process, combined with over 20 years experience manufacturing aerospace and commercial forged products, to produce aluminum wheels. The result is a high strength, lightweight wheel with no porosity and no welded joints.
CNC.
Once the profile is completed, the forgings are then turned over to the mill process. The mill process is where the design comes to life. As mill cycles run through a series of pre-selected tool sets and milling paths that can take up to 8 hours per wheel to achieve the utmost precision. After the milling process is completed, each section of raw milled aluminum needs to go through many stages of Hand Filing, Deburring, Buffing and Ceramic Bead High-Luster Polishing before it is ready for its ultimate finish. This is a vital stage for our craftsmen to prep each wheel before its coating. After each wheel is filed and sculpted the wheels go through a detailed check list with zero compromises.
FINISHING.
The most rewarding part of the manufacturing process is the finish stage. Velocity Forged premium finish line offers a brushed or polished base paired with transparent powder coats to reveal the beauty and details in the design. At Velocity Forge we are always learning new ways in achieving the utmost beautiful finishes in our industry. Each component of the wheel is offered with a Gloss, Satin or Texture finish of your choice.
ASSEMBLY.
The assembly stage is one of the most critical stages in the manufacturing stage. First step is to check the run-out of every wheel to guarantee the wheels are balanced to eliminate vibrations and wobbling. We chose to use Digital Torque Wrenches vs generic torque wrenches. One of the advantages is that it can more precisely control the amount of torque that’s applied to a bolt without losing any torque capacity. Every year or 5,000 cycles we will calibrate our wrenches to ensure accuracy and safety. After each bolt and nut is torqued we mark them and have our expert assemblers sign off the wheels for packaging.
