6th Generation Mustang Clay Milling and Modelling

6th Generation Mustang Clay Milling and Modelling
Precision, artistry and craftsmanship are an integral part of creating beautiful design. Ford designers use machines as well as hand modeling to develop a car’s surfaces. Clay modelers hand-work the surface to “clean” it to a finished level. As clay prototypes of new vehicles are created, designers take tape to the malleable material to show modelers the lines they want perfected. Clay is the ideal material for vehicle models as it allows the modelers to carve away or add lines and accents. In parallel to clay modeling, digital modelers create a virtual 3D model of the vehicle on a computer screen. The interior is milled and modeled as well.
