THE SOLUTION Avient proactively worked with Bettcher’s product development team to fully understand the yoke specifications to help ensure end-product quality would remain unparalleled in the market. Avient’s team also provided hands-on design recommendations to minimize knit line concerns and address structural requirements. Avient’s team helped mitigate that risk through education, advanced testing and technical expertise.

THE SOLUTION The Avient technical support team got involved early in Carbonerro’s design process of the Proglas shaft. The collaborative team identified a move away from the traditional mandrel rolling production process used in Asia, and toward an advanced semi-automated continuous filament winding process in the United States.
