The next day, I woke up with passion again. On the way going to the factory, we were provided a company presentation slide, contained the information of the factory, how to make racket, the compound and etc.
第二天起来还是好激动啊。去工厂的路上,看了个公司介绍幻灯片,有一些更工厂相关的内容。
We took around one hour from the hotel. Once reached Niigata Industrial Area, there’s a two Yonex factory. First is headquarter for production and the second is the manufacturer of badminton racquets. We arrived at the first HQ which was welcomed us and showed us to the meeting room. At there, we were being explained about the existence of this company and the process of making a badminton racquets.
从酒店到工厂花了1小时,到了新泻工业区就能看到2间YONEX工厂。第一座是产品总部,第二座是球拍制造厂。先去了总部,带我们进了会议室,介绍了下公司以及球拍生产过程。
After briefing, we were headed to the manufacturer factory. At there, the entrance is the process of cutting raw materials such as the technology mentioned by Yonex such as Carbon Bla bla bla… and once the cutting process is finish, it’s will go to the molding process, which make the soft carbon structure harder. (I skip this part). When I arrived at the painting process, I noticed 3 new models in making, and a raw material which contain code (VTZF2LD). I tried to approach those 3 models, but the officer was blocking me because it’s unfinished yet. Then, when we arrived at the final painting, I saw Arcsaber 9FL N. Which is in white, pink and olive green. The paint job is almost identical to current Arcsaber 11, Arcsaber FlashBoost and Arcsaber Z Slash. I was surprised. And I approached to another model; which held the name of Voltric.
完了之后就前往生产工厂了。一进门就是原材料裁剪工序,碳纤维什么什么的。下一个就是成型工序,软绵绵变黑又硬(我跳过了没看)。到了喷漆工序,我看到了3个新型号正在生产,还有个拍胚上的型号写着VTZF2LD。我想走近看看这3个新拍,被挡着了不让,说是还没完成。在最终上漆工序中我看到了新的ARC9FL,颜色是白色加粉色加橄榄绿。喷漆看上去跟A11,AFB,AZS挺像。有点儿惊喜。然后我去看了看另一个新型号,写着Voltric的。
