Scope Artech Road series
Artech | Road wheels
The Scope Artech – Road wheels, feature our newest technologies, are developed for pure performance, and provide the fastest and lightest road wheelsets of our portfolio and even on the market. The Artech Road wheels have a 23 mm internal hooked tire bed, optimized for 28 mm width road tires.
The lightweight and aerodynamic Artech Road wheelsets are developed for climbing, all-round and aero purposes. All come with our latest technologies including our unique 3D printed hubs, the Aeroscale rim technology, and Carbonlite Aerospokes spokes.
Algorithm Enhanced Aerodynamics
The shape of the Artech rims is defined by the Algorithm Enhanced Aerodynamics (AEA) technology. This algorithm optimizes the most aerodynamic rim-profile guaranteeing optimal aerodynamic performance.
The initial AEA algorithm, developed in 2017 in collaboration with the University of Technology Delft (aerospace engineering), was 2D-based and included the interaction effect of the rim and tire in the optimization. To redefine the benchmark of aerodynamics, Scope evolved their algorithm by making it 3D-based including the complete bike with components into the optimization.
Surface structure Aerodynamics
After the optimum rim profiles were defined, Scope studied the world of surface structures. During this research, they learned about fish scales reducing the aerodynamic drag, derived from nature, and recently successfully applied and tested in the aerospace industry.
Fish scales help to reduce drag as the fish moves through the water. The shape and arrangement of scales contribute to the fish’s ability to streamline its body and move efficiently through the water.
In case of a smooth rim surface the laminar airflow becomes unstable over time. This effect is referred to as the Tollmien–Schlichting wave. The patent pending Aeroscales generate velocity streaks traveling at different speed over our rim surface. These velocity streaks have a stabilizing effect on the airflow thereby reducing drag.
Lightweight 3D printed
Topology optimization is a mathematical algorithm that optimizes the shape of the hub shell based on a set of load cases and a given design space. The algorithm finds the most lightweight design while ensuring the required strength. Interestingly, the topology optimization results in a bone like structure again showing the power of nature. 3D printing technology unlocks the potential of topology optimization, resulting in an extreme strong and lightweight hub design. The Artech hub shells are 3D printed in Germany from Scalmalloy material, a high-performance alloy material applied in industries like Aerospace and Formula One.
Lightweight and durable
The optimized design of the Diamond Ratchet system provides a reduction of peak tensions on the ratchet teeth. Combined with a Diamond Like Carbon coating, this allowed Scope to apply a more lightweight Titanium material, resulting in a weight reduction compared to the steel Diamond Ratchets from Scope’s Race Series.
