Re: pic: 4in Wheel CAD
I'm a grumpy guy when it comes to wheels. I simply do not understand why teams insist on adding machining complexity to wheels.
Our wheels are solid 6061, the CNC op is all from one side (the spokes are on one face), simple tread groove, sick spokes, nothing fancy. I'd wager our 4" wheel is still lighter than most, and we could even make it lighter, we just don't see a huge need as they are currently .22 lbs. If you make it simpler, it's faster to make (large advantage) and easier to analyze the strength of it. |
