Andro CELL technology

Andro's new CELL technology - more than just a grip!

The handle area on these CELL blades incorporate a foam chamber which is divided itno small, identical cells. These cells precisely absorb vibration and create more 'counter-energy' on your  return shot. As the balls' rebound effect is intensified it suceeds in creating greater feed back on delivery and full contact through each stroke. These CELL blades feature an enlarged 'sweet-spot' which provides maximum feel and forgiveness.

 

 This new development has pushed the boundaries of blade technology to the next level. 


Andro Kinetic Supreme Technology

Anti – Torsion veneer technology

With the innovative Anti-Torsion veneer technology andro has managed to eliminate blade twisting and the related off putting vibrations felt through the blade almost completely.  As a result the enlarged hitting zone creates more efficient hitting power and pressure to the ball.  Better ball feedback equals more control accompanied by more dynamics.
Andro Super Core 'Kinetic' Grip System

Andro Super Core 'Kinetic' Grip System - Within the new 'Kinetic' grip there are loose carbon balls. When playing a shot, these carbon balls move and are catapulted towards the stroke's starting point. When the ball actually contacts the blade, these carbon balls move with great force toward the stroke's direction - thus producing a 'kinetic mass'. This mass releases speed energy and quickly dampens and absorbs vibration throughout the whole grip area


Andro Super Core System

Andro Super Core System - Technology can take your game to a higher level of performance. Table tennis is a sensory sport and requires quick, specific feedback for success. Andro's new 'Foam Super Core' design element provides the optimum combination of power and control. This allows more feel and touch feedback with improved acceleration.

Andro Temper Tech

What is TEMPER TECH?  It’s a revolutionary new wood treatment which produces outstanding playing characteristics. During production the TEMPER TECH veneers are heated to 150°-230° C for a certain period. During this intensive heat session the humidity of the wood disappears permanently which results in the wood becoming considerably harder, more stable and lighter. It also resists humidity absorption which creates a negative influence on the playing characteristics. Temper Tech really will ‘feel’ like a winning formula! The advantages for players using this technology are:

  

·        Extended durability and less distortion due to no humidity absorption

·        10-20% weight reduction due to the tempering treatment

·        Hard, thin middle and outer plies lead to outstanding energy-transfer

·        Extremely high control is present, even at fast speeds

·        Punctual ball feedback is felt even when balls are hit imperfectly


Stiga OVERSIZE blades

Stiga OVERSIZE blades - Larger blade heads offer extra stability of touch and feel. The blade is also thicker providing approximately 10% extra speed compared to conventional blades.


Stiga TUBE System

Stiga TUBE System - Micro-Channels are milled lengthways through the entire central ply and then filled with different material that adjusts the playing characteristics. Because 'feel' is the most important factor in you blade the new TUBE design is primarily capable of optimising 'feedback' from your shots.


Stiga WRB System

Stiga WRB System - The WRB system allows the balance of the blade to be scientifically moved to the point where contact is made with the ball, this increases the speed and accuracy performance. While, the precisely positioned recess in the GRIP provides extra sensitivity of touch.


TIBHAR Balsa Contact System

TIBHAR Balsa Contact System - Technology at your FINGERTIPS. This concept was designed by Tibhar to bring greater emphasis to the 'touch factor' of the blade. By filling a cavity within the grip with soft balsa wood they formed a 'Soft' contact with the blade head, which makes the grip more touch sensitive. The lighter wood reduced the overall weight, which in turn benefits the blade by shifting the centre of gravity forward. Together these 2 ideas results in providing improved balance between speed and touch. A very successful idea! Check out the very popular IV-L Light Contact blade.


TSP Balsa Series

TSP Balsa Series - The 'cross-cut' balsa is vertically compressed to function like springs. This 'elastic effect' together with Glass fibre provides the successful formula of fusion for touch and managed speed.
