01 What
Designed the monocoque moulds to their own requirements, so the cured part demoulds cleanly and the chassis builds to the correct geometry. Design driven by manufacturing reality, working directly with the team machining the plugs and open to feedback at every review.
02 How
- 01Designed tooling in Siemens NX with a minimum 3° draft angle on every face for clean demoulding.
- 02Matched split-line and alignment features so mould halves, and the resulting chassis, locate correctly.
- 03Exported part files for CNC-milled balsa-wood plugs used to form the negative moulds.
03 Result
- -Demouldable moulds that hold chassis alignment.
- -3° draft and alignment achieved on all faces.
- -Plugs CNC-milled and used directly to lay up the monocoque.
