There are many facts to learn about golf balls' manufacturing process. Some components are made from natural materials, while others are manufactured. For example, a golf ball's core is composed of rubber, with a liquid center. The core material may also include metals or acrylate. While these materials are similar, the compression of the core varies across different balls. Let's take a look at how different golf balls are constructed.
Modern golf balls may be made of rubber, plastic, or both
Modern golf balls are often made from plastic, rubber or plastic. Depending upon the manufacturer, the mantle or cover is either made from rubber or plastic. DuPont Company created a thermoplastic resin covering for golf balls in the 1980s. This material will not crack or break when it is struck, and it will remain intact until it has been dropped. The standard for golf balls of high quality is the synthetic cover.
Dimple patterns
This invention relates to a method that packs dimples in the outer surface and rim of a golf balls. A dimple pattern may be a circular, hexagonal, or triangular shape. You can also find patterns based upon Platonic Solids like the Octahedron, Dodecahedron, and many others. Each of these dimple patterns has specific aerodynamic properties. These properties are discussed in this invention, as well as the possibility of using these patterns to make golf balls.
Cover material
Golf balls are not made from molds, unlike tennis balls that are molded and then inflated. Actually, molds are a combination two different processes. The first stage involves smoothing out the golf ball's surface, then placing it on a spinning shaft. The paint is then applied using an automatic sprayer. Once the paint has dried, a clear coating can be applied to the balls to give them a high-sheen look and better scuff-resistance. Once the paint is dry, the balls are loaded into various containers and large dryers for the drying process.
Cost
Golf balls come in a variety of prices. The price of golf balls can vary depending on where you play. They can run as high as $10 per dozen for those who are professionals, or as low as $1 per person if you are just playing in summer. While it's impossible to tell the differences between high-quality and cheap balls, you can feel them. For this reason, you should shop around for the best price on golf balls.
Testing
Retorts are an important component of a golf ball tester. To measure the bounce, retorts let you drop balls from 40 cm high. A standard golf ball tester features three drop zones. Each zone can be used to determine the ball's removal threshold. Ryan drops three balls starting at 40 centimeters. The golf balls are bounced ten times in each zone. The best answer can be derived from the average bounce for all three.
