When one of our motorsport clients approached us with a technical challenge involving material selection, component performance and cost, our team looked beyond the existing specification.
Rather than simply supplying the steel already being used, Hillfoot reviewed the component, its performance requirements and the manufacturing process.
We identified an alternative material solution that could deliver optimum performance while providing a more cost-effective manufacturing route.
The customer benefited from:
Lower component production costs
Optimum material performance
A more cost-effective manufacturing route
Hillfoot’s metallurgical expertise
The outcome
By challenging the existing material specification, Hillfoot helped the customer achieve optimum performance at a lower manufacturing cost.
