Two work tables with dimensions of 1300 x 2000 mm and two with 1300 x 1000 mm as well as another one are used in the Jobs LinX machines. The raw aluminum blocks for the individual parts, such as the floor assembly, side parts, roof, boot lid, and wheels must be manufactured with corresponding precision on the giant gantry milling machines and clamped precisely beforehand. The final aluminum model can later be found on the assembly line as a test and gauge model. In addition, the clips in the aluminum model are already attached.

Attachment and cladding parts are also attached at the OEMs to verify the fits for subsequent series production. And, the designers and engineers can make an initial three-dimensional image of a newly planned car model and walk around it. Even the doors and trunk lid can be opened. When it is finished, the 1:1 scale model looks like a real car, but one made of aluminum. "After all, most of the parts that we manufacture are small batches or individual parts of a maximum of four," said Goth. Their readiness was great to simplify the complex clamping operations of the aluminum ingots and significantly reduce the long setup and calibration times. "At MT Technologies, they listened to us intently from the very start," said Erik Laubengeiger from AMF, who provided customer support at the time. The zero-point clamping modules in the clamping pallets hold the pull studs of the structural and spacer elements.
KG from Fellbach (AMF), the Ingolstadt-based company has a competent partner at its side that takes on the challenges of its customers and can offer customized solutions from standard products.Ĭlamping and set-up processes simplified and accelerated The workpieces are clamped directly on the pallets. What the master model builder triggered in his production operation has now grown into a continuous zero-point clamping system on all necessary machines. The manager of mechanical production at MT Technologies saw with astonishment how effectively the racing engineers clamped individual parts with AMF clamping technology. “The impulse came from the Formula 1,” said Mario Goth, remembering a visit in 2013 to the Sauber team in Switzerland. With the intelligent zero-point clamping technology, the roof element can be securely clamped for five-sided machining. Thanks to the intelligent zero-point clamping technology from AMF, this can be done quickly, flexibly, with high repetition accuracy, and with process reliability using the modular principle. What the experts produce with high machining performance from solid blocks, mostly in batch size, must first be clamped very efficiently.
The model maker manufactures entire vehicles as a reference, and test models made of aluminum for numerous OEMs. The owner received their model from Henrik Fisker himself at the recently opened Fisker Center+ facility in Copenhagen, Denmark.Long before a new car model hits the streets, you could already touch it at MT Technologies -– if everything were not so top secret. Henrik Fisker presenting the first Ocean SUV model (Source: Fisker) First Fisker Ocean SUV customer takes delivery The EV maker confirmed last month that the electric SUV had been certified by regulators in Europe, and the Fisker Ocean One Launch Edition was ready for customer deliveries.Īccording to Fisker’s latest press release, the company has kept the momentum going, with the first Ocean SUV customer taking delivery Friday. Fisker held true to its timeline, kicking off Ocean production last November with plans for Magna Steyr to produce up to 42,400 vehicles this year. Since its public debut at the 2022 LA Auto Show, the Fisker Ocean SUV has generated considerable interest, reporting over 63,000 total orders in November. The Ocean is Fisker Inc’s first electric vehicle since revamping the brand in 2016 after Henrik Fisker’s previous startup, Fisker Automotive, went bankrupt in 2013.įisker believes this time is different with developing EV supply chains and heightening demand for zero-emission electric options. (NYSE: FSR) delivered its first electric Ocean SUV model to a customer at its new facility in Copenhagen, Denmark Friday.
