Daiwa Factory Visit & Tournament Pro XLS Preview

hello and welcome to catch more media in tonight's show we have something a little bit different for you as we travel north to wish your Scotland well we're joined by day was marketing manager Steven McCabe me who gives us a tour of their state-of-the-art factory as well as a fascinating insight into how poles are actually made on top of this we get a sneak preview of daya's new tournament Pro XLS which is set to hit the shops very soon because I've been looking up to have been shown the dour factory before I decided to let my trusty cameraman Jordan Holloway have a stint in front of the camera and it proves to be quiet the presenter mana stealer welcome Jordan he's a lot of fishing tackle there the last few years right last week is mainland trial rhythm and I use tongs g50 bring best poll that's follow the yeast and we're here to see some more polls on that to their right we're going to give you a Tula factory yeah we're going to give you a fill-in see to how we make stuff here but protect that I'm going to follow the tournament Pro X XLS round yeah first batch going through and you'll see everything from start to finish yeah and the pool particularly it's got a significant number of patterns and materials involved and so I'll show you all that in detail take it it's a like lengthy process and yes with polls all those no handles and guides on your decorating a lot vent virtual parks and will even stop for some lunch in a famous County brilliant get going while I'm in let's get started hey Jordan this is what all begins this is a cutting room where we actually cut the Virgil patents for all the things that we make here balls rods yeah well how many parts would go into a pole like an air XLS well and the one you're going to see today which is the flu X Atlas was actually from the one to eleven sections was 83 different individual parts there's a lot more knowledge expected now actually main team different types of carbon as well I thought I be I thought would be one cut of a one part of a pole that there's a significant number of hidden elements at every full section yeah the joint reinforcements the materials that go along the way and their own to be yeah the bits that keep it stuff from the best to keep it round how many passes cook for a lot a rub weevil on the road you're only talk about three sections yeah it's a ball it's got 11 and they young people have the multiple layers over involved so yeah maybe talking about more than 15 so it's quite it's quite different but will give you a suitable carpenters that are using as well we use up to 450 different types of material and all the process so there's a lot of them secret secrecy today but some between liquid camera right you probably have to tell them we play used a lot when people are describing carbon fiber that basically means the carbon sheet is pre impregnated with heat reactive resins and the technology behind resins are what is an often the most sophisticated part and we're always trying to achieve more volumes of resin through the production in the ball yeah because that's the stuff that goes wait we've got a benefit globally at they were on having access to materials that are not openly available in fashion Road manufacture and here in the UK were starting to use materials that have never been used over say Japan brilliant brilliant [Music] so these are some patterns of cook materials colors a little bit more about them well these bits of you hold in Jordan are actually reinforcements you can see they've got a proper shape so you've got some great angle yeah change some different shapes they are gonna fit yeah and these are actually all integral to the reinforcement or the joints yeah and just behind as you'll see the team are actually tracking the sections together and the component parts yeah interpretation for the target sheets to be attached to the mandrel so I'm starting to see all these hidden patterns what happens with the next well we've actually tacked them together into single component elements of it actually being applied to the mandles these are the formers that give us the shape of the ball sections and what you've got is 0 and 90 degrees and bias Carbon patterns all compose together they've been a flight and sent to lay into the mandrel and then they are rolled into place on the rolling tables hmm [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] so Steven I've seen the section for pet parole in what's happening here well virtually new got the carbon patterns all assembled into effectively the beginning of a tube yeah perhaps is secured into place while curing and that's what we're very they were keeping it with a heat resistant tape that's wrapped around the pool intersection and a lot of appalls we actually exaggerate the after effect of that together as a texture finish to assist in the travel of the sections there's a lot quicker than linear shipping yeah its feelings from g50 yeah yeah I've noticed some of the sections already have cosmetic elements unlike the numbers and here int elastic kit why is that well what would actually do as we apply the oil markers on decorations onto the carbon and we actually cute it into the actual wall or the funny section scissors having to take it and paint able to slip out the problem could come off later on from it keep someone family [Music] we've just seen the sections get into the oven what's happenin ears well this is curing this is where we expose the sample sections on the mandals to 140 degrees centimeters yeah that's ha ha I get and they're in there for two O's yeah and in that process the resins the P play business break down into a fluid state and merge all the layers of carbon sheets and buttons together into a single wall the sections have been in the oven for 2 hours now what's the next process well look at the cube intersection we have to remove the man who wants to film the force and then the tape has to be removed some of the sections just apply a trimming and a chamfer applied to them and then they're ready or they get the bigger sections of like sections have to be smooth sanded and preparation for the spray-painting and skin printing it takes place all sections are no whew well they have to be cut definitely sounded you have to be groans some of the joints up to be smooth the sections that always need all the land whatever sin and as I said earlier some of the decorative elements of the sections have to have a first office before that process can begin so we're doing three things here cutting grinding and sanding yeah it probably wasn't available using a lot of water than this process yeah the occurrence of which there's a lot of carbon pigments Oliver is there between Don save McElveen all the water recycle it and dispose of all art residual waste not through once all about Lucent all means so Steven we're clearly in the declaration section by what we're wearing here yeah for you sure colors and I clean a quick yeah yeah we're controlling the invite of apples immunity equality in the attempt journey particles get into the people yeah so we're good I had a few steps here actually you're actually looking at the ATT XLS sections and as I was explaining the some I'm Trent going and can being applied here we have a smaller section of color that has to be screen-printed we don't use the rolling screen machine here's our unfriend and they're these balls have actually had the top court applied to them I tried so I think that probably ready for Commission yes we're you see a super useful ad for packing off so Jordan here we are the tournament Pro X XLS in its finished form looks fantastic in it brilliant also I've seen older tournaments but I'm seeing one with an XLS horse what's the difference we've actually had a few XLS additions the last two years I'm XLS it stands for extra long section yeah and the bots the which is the 11th the 10th in the 9th at individually 10 centimeters longer yeah which contributes to the ball in a variety of ways but the balls also cut at the front end to 2 mil internal diameter CSX but the basic benefit is that it's filler length Paul is the pool is more responsive feels better and even assemble it with a ball action at the back end has improved well Steven this pole it's summer alpha net bit of a base well I think you can see the response of this you getting it feels a al that's the XLS concept coming into soon yeah I'll tell you what if you think good was the tuples above it and this year for the unity and the ear me legend home haha good they feel very very special well Jordan and I left Iowa really impressed not only with the outstanding quality of the products but also infectious enthusiasm and passion of the staff next week we're back in the Midlands as we join England international matt darey revolt fishing masterclass makings fishery near Coventry until then folks tie lines you
