CP Pistons are designed using an advanced 3D modeling software and are qualified through a rigorous Finite Element Analysis entity. 3D modeling enables CP to check thicknesses and weights before manufacturing allowing CP to produce the strongest and lightest part for your application. CP has developed proprietary tooling, dedicated cutters and unconventional fixtures to ensure that each piston is produced to the highest quality. 5-axis machining techniques allow creation of many piston design elements with computerized electronic inspection equipment assuring manufactured parts to the tightest tolerances in the industry.
