The Composite Flow Technology Core (CFT)
« on: June 18, 2013, 03:28:34 PM »
I tip my cap yet again to 900 Global for this new technology ( CFT )  :)  If you've ever drilled up a ball then you'll know what IM talking about 8) They have now taken the guessing game out of the drilling process in how the #'s change when you drill a ball.  this will make it much easier now with out changing the CG Diff or MB #'s. 900 GLOBAL continues to be doing there home work and all the extra credits possible to make there line the best it can be.. thanks 900Global.

If you want it, go after it and make it happen.  If you don't, you have no one to blame but yourself....or maybe your just not throwing the right equipment  :)

Are cores typically poured with high Reynold number flow?  Under laminar conditions would this issue to be adverted...that is unless the viscosity of the outer material was very high...   Any different from pouring plug material into a thumb hole containing a "shop candy" from the ice cube tray?  Tap a few times with the rubber mallet to release the bubbles...no?

I was thinking about this as well.  Do you think voids are what they are worried about?  I was wondering if lower pouring velocity or Rey No, would help this as well.  I do not know all the detail though, about time restraints on the material in the mixing tank or how long it takes to pump out hundreds or thousands of these.  Designing a core to help mix the filler material properly, seemed like overkill to me.  Almost like worrying about the manufacturing process rather than the importance of what you are making.   I mean are voids in the filler really a big problem?

I am a fan of 900 Global, and I joined this site simply to respond to the conversation on the CFT core.  I also drill balls.  There has been a lot of efforts in recent history to create cores that function to avoid manipulation of the undrilled specs through drilling.  The most successful case to date is Seismic's Tenaci core, and of course Storm followed suit with the Crux.

I am going to roll my network for the first time, i just finished drilling it up and I can't wait.  I love the new generation Global balls like the Moxie and the All Day but i had to have a network, the Dream can wait.

The CFT or the CFT2 in the case of the Network is undeniably awesome and unique.

However, Global, and others have been UNABLE to prove that the specs remain the same after drilling.  They actually explained that it was impossible to prove what they BELIEVED  to be true. 

So while this core is actually pretty spectacular in form and function, and maybe revolutionary, it is remains unproven whether or not Global accomplished the mission of creating a core with specs that remain unchanged after drilling.

Radical did this with their patented finger scoop core in the yeti.

They can use the design software that creates bowling balls to get a very accurate idea of what happens to the ball after drilling. Ebonites blueprint software proves that.

Id rather have a core I can manipulate then not. They've spent a lot of time with layouts and weight hole locations to manipulate the balls reaction.
…… you can't  add a physics term to a bowling term and expect it to mean something.
