Next-Gen NVH
Hollow Wheel — a quieter cabin starts here.
A hollow-section wheel cast with embedded sand cores creates acoustic and vibration-damping chambers within the wheel itself — shifting resonance away from cabin-audible frequencies and reducing what road and tyre noise can transmit to the chassis.
Part-level FEA in progress to characterise frequency-response improvements vs. conventional cast wheels.
Vibration Absorption
Hollow chambers act as cavities that absorb and dissipate vibrations generated by tyre-and-road contact — reducing what reaches the hub and ultimately the cabin floor.
Cabin-Noise Reduction
The hollow geometry dampens specific frequencies that contribute to in-cabin acoustic load — shifting wheel resonance away from the human-audible range.
Sand-Core LPDC Construction
As-cast sand-core hollow section embedded within standard LPDC tooling — a Ø9mm sand-core print opening allows post-cast removal without compromising structural integrity.
