Custom-manufacturing 1960s Motorcycle Side Case Lids
The Task
The owner of a rare 1960s motorbike contacted us after losing the right-side case lid, an irreplaceable part. Since finding a replacement was impossible, he brought us the left-side lid as a blueprint. We welcomed the opportunity, successfully replicating the unique design from the remaining piece to manufacture a new pair and complete the bike's restoration.
The Solution
3D scanning technology provided a lightning-fast and highly effective method for replicating the missing part. We used our blue laser scanner to meticulously capture the complex geometry—both internal and external—of the existing lid with absolute precision. Utilizing CAD software, we then refined this data, mirrored it, and perfected the design to create an exact digital pair. The new lids were 3D printed in durable ABS for high impact strength and chemical resistance, then finished with a black glossy coat before successful delivery.
