Metal Spinning is a craft. The traditional job of a Gürtler is very important to produce a round wheel. Don’t think static. Imagine the wheel rolling on the road. Understand how the rubber and the metal will touch the surface on their high speed journey. Feel the material flex and withstand the stress – that is what it takes to be a wheel tech guy.
