Steering knuckle: features of two components combined

Example of a classic car steering knuckle: a new geometry combines features of two source parts.

Source components and pattern

A new geometry combines features of two source parts. A pattern for casting is then printed from it.

Physical comparison of source components and pattern.

Combined geometry and machining allowances

  • Combined geometry from two source parts as a STEP model
  • Allowances in the areas to be machined later
  • This material is removed by machining after casting

The intention is to remeasure the casting against the digital master afterwards. The Benelli example shows how I remeasure.
