3D Printed Titanium Golf Club Heads for Innovation
On January 16th, the brand new 3D-printed titanium alloy golf club head designer brand launched by the Japanese golf design company opened its world premiere in Japan, and will accept reservations in China on January 18th. After more than 1,600 days of research and development exploration, more than 1,000 tests, and 19 performance optimizations, the Designer brand adopts the metal 3D printing technology of Hunan Huashu High-tech Co., Ltd. To successfully break through the design limitations and realize the precise long-range and extraordinary fault tolerance of titanium alloy golf club head products, and has applied for a number of patents, innovating in design and manufacturing technology.
3D printing to achieve excellent performance of golf club heads is an innovative breakthrough for the Designer brand.Designer uses super-strong titanium alloy to create a high-speed club surface, and applies Farsoon high-tech metal 3D printing technology for mass production. While maintaining high ductility, it improves the strength of the surface of the golf club head and realizes unprecedented performance of the golf club head; breaking through design limitations, it no longer needs to rely on the support of the traditional club head exoskeleton, so that the complex structure is formed in one piece, perfectly showing the complex inner cavity structure like a spider web, and creating a thinner, stronger, and more complex surface; the crown surface, bottom surface and inner surface of the golf club head form an integrated structure of a three-dimensional skeleton, which is seamlessly formed through 3D printing technology. , Its ultra-high resistance center of gravity design achieves extremely high elasticity, bringing a sharper sense of experience to the batter and hitting a longer distance; the new design improves aerodynamics and stability by reducing resistance, and has a 3D complex structure that the air flow can penetrate during the strike, faster speed and longer hitting distance.It is reported that in the field of golf products, the traditional method of producing the original golf club head blank needs to go through multiple stages such as design, shaping, and mold opening. The research and development cycle of a new product takes 45 to 70 days, while the 3D printing of the original blank of the club head only takes one week; the production cost of traditional molds is about USD$8,500 to USD$14,000, and the frequency of use is 8,000 to 10,000 times. Using Farsoon high-tech metal additive manufacturing equipment FS200M, one cylinder can print 6 to 8 products, and the comprehensive calculation of production efficiency can be increased by more than 60%.
3D printing technology has injected new vitality into the golf product market and is setting off a new trend.In the next stage, major brands will compete to launch golf products with the advantages of 3D printing, pushing the innovation of the entire industry to a whole new level.
