Inspiration + OneCNC + CNC = T - Rod

Germany_1_1

The company Technop GmbH, since 1994 on the market based in Plankstadt , Baden-Württemberg, has been one of the first customers for OneCNC Germany. The owner Martin Preuss started in 2001 with multiple versions from OneCNC and continually updated his software. Because of that Technop GmbH is able to use all their machinery efficient and fully utilized.

In 2004 Martin Preuss got together with Luigi Colani, a Star designer, at his exhibition hall in Karlsruhe. After some discussions about a new car the product range of Martin Preuss was unexpectedly larger.

Technop GmbH built the prototype of the sensational vehicle, a Street-Ray. They used OneCNC for the whole construction of the 2D and 3D parts, which were compiled as NC code and transmitted into the CNC lathe and milling machines for production directly used.

This inspired Martin Preuss for his own further development, a T-Rod. He used OneCNC to create and construct again and all the parts are perfectly built using the CNC programs. Here are some impressions of this impressive vehicle:
