Verification Procedures.
Phase 01
Selective Matching
We build our systems on proven components, both our own and from renowned partners. However, there's no room for a lottery here. We guarantee full repeatability of the control process. Every raw material batch, regardless of origin, is subject to verification in our machine park before being allowed into the assembly phase.
Rejection Criteria
- Dimensional deviations above micrometric tolerance.
- Inhomogeneity of metal alloy structure.
- Non-compliance with the master characteristic curve.
Phase 02
Analysis and Harmonization of Struts
A complete MacPherson strut is a complex dynamic system. The mere presence of a new spring means nothing if its characteristics do not harmonize with the shock absorber. Our process solves this problem.
Test Scope
-
Spring Rate Testing: We test the behavior of springs under a given vertical load.
-
Damping tuning: Selection of shock absorber valving for spring dynamics.
-
Thrust bearing test: Verification of the smoothness of the upper mount rotation under full pressure simulating the vehicle weight.
Phase 03
Steering knuckle assembly at the plant
Improper bearing seating using a manual press in a workshop is the most common cause of complaints in the industry. We move this risky process to our controlled production environment, eliminating human error.
Seating Standards
-
Casting geometry control: Micrometric checking of the bearing seat tolerance before pressing.
-
Force monitoring (kN): Hydraulic seating with strictly calibrated pressure, preventing race micro-cracks.
-
Lateral runout verification: Rotational test of the assembled hub ensuring perfect alignment and no vibrations during driving.
