In the field of sports equipment manufacturing today, carbon fiber materials are highly favored for their excellent properties such as lightweight and high strength. As a large-scale carbon fiber prepreg and carbon fiber product intelligent manufacturing enterprise, A&E's carbon fiber baseball bats have been exported to countries with developed baseball industries such as the United States, South Korea, and Japan. According to statistics, out of every 10 high-end carbon fiber baseball bats worldwide, 6 come from A&E. We have always been at the forefront of intelligent manufacturing technology for carbon fiber baseball bats, and the automatic weight filling process, with its advantages in high-precision control, production efficiency improvement, and quality stability, highlights its enormous application value.

Regarding the automatic gravity filling process

The grouting process refers to the process of injecting specific filling materials into the interior of a baseball bat structure that has already been constructed with carbon fiber prepreg, in order to adjust the weight, center of gravity, and other performance parameters of the baseball bat. This process occurs after the bat is formed.

The automated heavy equipment inA&E is the core of the entire process. Our equipment adopts an advanced metering system that can accurately control the injection amount of filling material. During the filling process, workers will first scan the QR code on the bat, and the computer will export and pre input the corresponding bat filling specifications. Liquid filling materials such as resin will also be placed in the metering pump and injected into the inside of the ball stick at a stable flow rate according to the preset program. In addition to resin, we will also use solid fillers such as steel bars to facilitate better fusion of heavy materials. The cutting of steel bars is also completed entirely on automated equipment. The computer will automatically cut the corresponding length of steel bars according to the required weight specifications of the ball club, and automatically drop them into the ball club through the guide groove. Because of such intelligent process equipment, a ball stick with a filling weight requirement of 60g can be precisely controlled within an error range of±1g.

In addition, we will also perform weight-bearing operations on different parts of the baseball bat according to different design requirements, such as grip weight-bearing, big end weight-bearing, etc. When pouring, the equipment will also automatically adjust the flow rate and injection angle of the filling material based on the different parts of the baseball bat and the preset program.

The advantages of automatic gravity filling process

1. Accuracy and consistency

One of the biggest advantages of automatic gravity filling technology is its high precision and consistency. Through precise metering pump system and real-time monitoring system, the weight of each baseball bat can be precisely controlled within a very small error range. This is crucial for professional baseball players, as the weight distribution of the baseball bat directly affects the feel and effect of hitting the ball.

2. Improve production efficiency

Compared with manual pouring, which is cumbersome and inefficient, automatic pouring can greatly improve production efficiency through continuous and uninterrupted operations. At present, Zhongshan Rongnan has achieved the task of recharging 100 baseball bats per hour per device.

3. Product quality is more stable

Manual weight filling is prone to human error, while automatic weight filling technology can greatly reduce the impact of this factor on product quality. The automated weight filling equipment runs according to the preset program to ensure stable and reliable weight filling quality of the baseball bat.

4. Innovation and competitiveness enhancement

In the field of carbon fiber manufacturing, continuous innovation is the key to maintaining competitiveness for enterprises. As a more advanced process, A&E's automatic gravity filling technology reflects the company's innovation capability. It has earned our products more reputation in the international market.

The automatic weight filling process of A&E carbon fiber baseball bat is one of the innovative breakthroughs in the field of sports equipment manufacturing. In the future, we will continue to uphold the concept of innovative development and strive to bring more high-performance and high-quality carbon fiber products to global customers.
