Concept

Graphical concepts including; geometry setting, key feature definition, tube lay out options, brand matched aesthetics.
Early introduction of FEA simulation validates concepts, providing a clear route toward component design.

Component

FEA driven component design with discipline specific load cases.
  • Tube profile optimisation.
  • Load distribution.
  • Asymmetric layout.
Aerodynamic analysis and drag reduction of external flows using CFD.

Quality | Efficiency | Cost

Racecraft can coordinate and manage your sourcing needs through our network of hand chosen international manufacturers.
In addition, our composite designs can be implemented on a mass scale thanks to the access granted by our supply partners during production.
Alternatively we can assist production with your existing partnerships or in house projects.
We supply complete production tool design, ply plots and laminating booklets.
