Only the highest quality prime material is used to produce a wheel by Rimstock
Using the finest materials supplied from the world's most renowned smelters, Rimstock ensures only the highest quality, prime material is used to produce a wheel.
We have designed, developed and built our very own in-house, low-pressure die casting machines. These are fitted with fully automated process control systems, which allow remote control of every aspect of the casting process. All this helps Rimstock to ensure it has the latest technology to produce a more integral, high quality casting.
Through 'real time' x-ray monitoring to confirm casting perfection, then in to the modern machine shops fitted with CNC turning centres and drilling fixtures each and every process is controlled using statistical process techniques.
Rimstock's super advanced paint and treatment facility houses fully automated wet and powder lines with robot handling systems, all enclosed in a controlled air movement atmosphere. The use of complete water based environmentally compliant coatings is also a policy of Rimstock.
The anti-corrosion pre-treatment system is fully automated, also allowing compatibility with modern ecological legislations. These systems guarantee that not only are wheels produced to superior standards in quality, but are fully compatible with all contemporary environmental issues.
