What does billet-milled design mean?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When Ford talks about their new billet-milled design for the new lineup, it refers to the way in which the components of the vehicle are formed. Traditional methods used aluminum stamping where aluminum in liquid form was poured into molds. Conversely, billet-milled production chisels the piece out of a solid aluminum block, therefore, preserving the integrity of the material and creating more precise structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
