“We are pretty diverse with our component supply, but in all cases reaction time is key: for our race car we sometimes only have 24 hours from design release to delivery,” reveals Machine Shop Manager Robert Brown. Today, the Machine Shop at the Team headquarters in Brackley, Northamptonshire, not only manufactures parts for the race cars, but also for several customer programmes, including other Formula One Teams and the INEOS Britannia Americas Cup sailing Team. A VERICUT user for over two decades, the team has engrained VERICUT into its Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), aware of the benefits it provides in reducing machine collisions and component scrap, while simultaneously optimising lead time. The machine shop of the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team relies on VERICUT verification, simulation and optimisation software from CGTech to guarantee the successful machining of its many high-complexity, high-value components.
