Studebaker Head Aluminum Casting
The Challenge:
Some select units of 1936 Studebaker models required a new straight eight head. How do we recreate and manufacture new cast aluminum straight eight heads?
The Solution:
Beginning with a laser scan of the exterior and a CT scan of the interior, we capture the detailed measurements of the components. We use the data to create a 3D CAD design for precision casting and machining. Then, we CNC machine composite pattern tooling and fabricate 3D-printed cores to optimize the casting process. The castings are built and heat-treated for better strength and durability and machined once more to precisely match the desired engine assembly specifications.
The Results:
We successfully restored multiple units of aluminum straight eight-cylinder heads for the 1936 Studebaker President Coupe with detailed inspection and precision machining. Focusing on performance and functionality, our team ensured each component met the original specifications and operated at optimal efficiency for a casting solution that restored the engine and preserved the integrity of the vehicle.
