Computer simulation

Once the basic design has been constructed on the computer, every detail of the development process can then be simulated and changed on screen. Thanks to the latest 3D technology, developers can view a photo-realistic model of the wheel they're producing. They are also able to adjust the model to view slight changes in proportions or the two-colour paintwork. Once all of the design features have been decided upon, the model is transferred to the CAD system to move one step closer to a live prototype.
