MSP And Empire Cycles collaborate with Renishaw

In MSP are specialists in engineering advanced. They have provided savings of costs of production valued in million euros to manufacturers of the aerospace sector of all the world in the main international projects.

MSP Has developed two products to facilitate the manufacture of pieces in 5 axles. NC-Checker And NC-PerfectPart simplify the task to work with machines of 5 axles and the centraje of pieces in 5 axles. Companies that wish to increase his productivity and reduce the costs of the processes of manufacture of complex pieces have now an answer to some of the difficulties that generate this type of pieces. In addition to working with manufacturers Prevail and Tier 1 of the aerospace sector of all the world, our experience in processes of mechanised has allowed to extend us quickly to other sectors, especially to the industry of the composites, where the systems of MSP are widely widespread, and to the manufacture to measure of pieces of Formula 1.

MSP Has worked with the manufacturer of systems of defence, BAE Systems, to the that has contributed a saving of 21 million pounds* only in the manufacture a piece of the most advanced military hunting that exists at present, the F35 II Lightening. (*During the life of the piece).

The team of project of BAE Systems percató that to solve the problems of manufacture of the door of the compartment of nozzle needed skilled help for a so complex piece. MSP Was invited to review the project to look for a satisfactory exit. They identified three areas of improvement 1) tooling of tie up, 2) alignment of piece and 3) keep the quality of the geometry of the machine in a high level.

The team of production of BAE Systems designed a revolutionary tooling for the piece. By his part MSP implemented his system NC-PerfectPart for firstly chequear the capacity of the machine before verifying that the alignment of the piece was inside tolerance. Everything simply with a touch of button of the operario.

The speed and precision that comported this conjoint effort in the manufacture of the door of the compartment of nozzle allowed to win to the equipment of project of BAE Systems and MSP the prestigious prize BAE Systems Chairman's GOLD Award of 2013, selected among others 1.000 projects and innovations.

The first metallic picture of bicycle form in 3D manufactured by Renishaw for Empire Cycles

Renishaw, in collaboration with the manufacturer of bicycles Empire Cycles, has created the first picture of metallic bicycle form in 3D of the world. The work in team of Renishaw and Empire Cycles has optimised the design of the bicycles for the manufacture by contribution of material, and has achieved to create a picture of resistant and light titanium by means of topological optimisation - the new picture is 33% lighter that the original. The picture has manufactured by contribution of material with alloy of titanium by sections later joined. This method contributes a series of advantages:

Libertad of design

• Fast iterations; flexibility to realizar improvements of design immediately before happening to production
• Possibility to create forms by means of topological optimisation (see to continuation)
• exclusive Manufacture to measure: realisation of thrown limited with the same ease that the manufacture in chain

Construction

• Complex forms with internal reinforcements
• hollow Structures
• integrated Characteristics, like the name of the cyclist

Performance, alloy of titanium

• The vertical tube is 44% lighter that in the version of aluminium
• Maximum resistance: according to the norm IN 14766
• Resistant to the corrosion and long length
