The largest carbon fiber rim ever!

According to the latest news from foreign websites, the famous British car manufacturer Bentley has launched innovative full carbon fiber wheels for its Bentayga SUV in recent days, which are developed by Bucci Composites
.
The 22-inch carbon fiber wheels are the largest carbon fiber wheels ever made, guaranteeing innovative design and outstanding performance, as well as a light weight of 6 kg per wheel
.

All the benefits of using ultra-light carbon fiber wheels are directly related to the reduction in wheel weight: lighter component design means less moment of inertia, resulting in greater acceleration, shorter braking distances and better vehicle handling
.
In addition, less unsprung mass means improved grip between the tire and the road, ensuring good road holding characteristics
.

Another major benefit of Bucci Composites wheels is the hub-to-wheel coupling system, which allows the wheel to be secured to the hub in a conventional manner, eliminating the risk of torque loss from the wheel bolts
.
As a result, this assembly system offers all the advantages of conventional wheel retention systems, but with a significant reduction in weight
.

Located in Faenza, in the prestigious Auto Valley, Bucci Composites covers an area of ​​22,000 square meters, has two production sites and approximately 250 employees, and is a leader in the design, development and manufacture of composite structural and aesthetic components for the automotive, aerospace, industrial and marine sectors.

Back in March of this year, after years of development, Bucci Composites wheels, in cooperation with a prestigious world-class OEM, successfully completed the stringent TÜV (Technischer Überwachungsverein/Technical Inspection Association) testing procedure, and the automotive carbon fiber wheel test was completed for the product to market.
laid the foundation
.

To date, no carbon rim manufacturer in the world has been able to complete the program of the famous German test house, which has allowed Bucci Composites to set a new world record
.
With safety guaranteed, the Italian-made wheels set the benchmark in the carbon rim market
.

The full carbon fiber wheels are not only technically superior, but also provide an unprecedented driving experience
.
To verify this, in the final test phase, the carbon fiber wheels were put to the test on one of the most famous race tracks in the world, the Nürburgring
.

The Bucci Composites full carbon fibre composite wheels save 6kg per corner compared to equivalent forged aluminium wheels
.
One of the main innovations of the Bucci Composites wheel is its manufacturing process, which combines an innovative concept (protected by a patent) with High Pressure Resin Transfer Molding (HP-RTM) technology
.

The production materials and parameters are carefully studied by the Bucci Composites R&D team to ensure product repeatability and quality
.
The optimization of the process and the high standards of the technology used lead to a significant cost reduction, while still meeting the productivity requirements of the automotive industry
.

Bucci Composites manufactures composite parts using cutting edge production techniques
.
With more than 20 engineers and a team of process and material experts, Bucci Composites' technical and R&D department manages every stage of the product development process: from initial design to final control
.
Bucci Composites is part of the Bucci Industries Group, a global leader in two core industries: industrial automation and robotics and new and advanced composite materials
